She was born in Maine and spent summers at her grandparents’ camp on Thomas Pond. There she learned the importance of family, friends, music, and the magic of loons and the pond itself.

She moved back to Maine with her family and completed high school in Cape Elizabeth and received her Bachelors in Social Work from the University of Maine and her Masters in Clinical Counseling from the University of Southern Maine.
