I work as part of a team of people who are responsible for keeping the facilities clean. I clean bathrooms, including the toilets and sinks. I also clean light switches and door knobs, and I take out the trash, too.

When I’m working at FBH, I know that I’m being productive and that I’m making a difference. I also really enjoy being around my coworkers every day, and I’m grateful for the opportunity to earn a paycheck.

I love going to the water park, playing video games, and watching anime. My favorite video game is Harvest Moon, and my favorite TV show is Naruto. I also love eating ramen!

My brothers, Jensen and Noah. I also like spending time with my respite worker, Jenn. We like to go out to the movies and go out to eat. I also love spending time with my boyfriend, Mark.
