Fun facts about Marisa:

  1. I have always loved cats and we recently added one to our family. Her name is Sabre, and she brings us so much joy!
  2. I have never left the country or been to the ocean. I am looking forward to my honeymoon in June and being able to cross both off my bucket list!
  3. I’m an avid reader and easily will get lost in a book for a weekend. My favorite genres are modern new adult romance, historical romance, and fantasy. So far this year I have finished three books and I’m working on my fourth!
  4. I enjoy learning about history. I love to listen to podcasts or watch documentaries about past civilizations and their lifestyles or historical events.
  5. I enjoy being involved in the community. I am part of Rotary Readers, Women Inspiring and Networking (WIN), NeXt, and am currently participating in the Leadership Perspectives class of 2022-2023.
