A little back story about me: I used to be afraid of firearms. In the spring of 2005, my step-dad bought a couple handguns and started taking my brother (his son) to the range every Sunday. For a few months, I always wondered why he would buy such a thing and bring my brother to the range, which at that time was 12 years old. Then I thought “I’m 9 years older than my brother, why am I so fearful of an inanimate object and he’s not?” So I asked my step-dad if I could tag along one Sunday as well to satisfy my curiosity. And so I did – the instant that the first bullet came out of that barrel, spiraling down range into a large pile of shredded tires, I was hooked! And I have been hooked ever since.

Now, I am one of the leaders for The Well Armed Woman, Sacramento and Roseville Chapters – helping to educate, empower, and equip other women in the sport of shooting.  It has become a passion of mine to help others overcome their fear of firearms and also help others improve their shooting.
