My parents are both from small towns.  My mom grew up in Atkinson, Nebraska, and my dad lived in Savannah, Missouri.  A year before I was born, my parents moved to Raleigh, North Carolina, where I was born and spent my early childhood.  I moved to Omaha when I was one year old and have lived here since. I play lacrosse and run cross country.  My favorite sports teams are Nebraska football, Creighton basketball, Duke basketball, and Kansas City Chiefs football (sadly).   My grandparents have a cabin at Lake of the Ozarks that I go to each year to wakeboard, tube, ski, and fish.  I would say that this is my favorite place to be.
