April has lived in Belgium, Canada, and Japan. She has a thing for horses. She enjoys hiking, camping, pickleball, huge salads, ice cream, road trips, National Parks, dancing (not that she is good at it), card games, her husband's garden, her children's animal and rock hobbies, drawing, and family time. April has learned that if she is afraid of something, she needs to face it. She feels most alive when she is experiencing or learning something new.
She is a sucker for printed books and she loses her sunglasses all of the time.
