I love to go to the movies. My favorite actors are Al Pacino, Robin Williams and Brad Pitt. My favorite actresses are Meryl Streep, Judi Dench, Katharine Hepburn and Audrey Hepburn. I have a twin sister named Randi. We also have two brothers named Greg and Geoff. I adore my nephew Cody and his ID bracelet is my good luck charm. I wish I could sing. Im deathly afraid of snakes. I dont like chocolate or cookies. My birthday is January 6, 1975. I love to make people laugh and some consider me the biggest practical jokester on the team. I wanted to be an astronaut when I was little. I love to play golf and I love the New England Patriots !
Since 2004
I bought a house in Fresno, Ca. I give individual hitting lessons to some incredible kids. My niece Kylie, Codys sister, was born in October. I was nominated by my team to the USOC to carry the flag into closing ceremonies at the 2007 Pan American Games. It was an amazing experience. I played for the Professional Fastpitch Xtreme Tour (PFX) where we tour the United States participating in exhibition games. I have been training hard to make the team for the 2008 Olympic Games.
