Off the Job

Elise grew up here in Salem, Oregon, and is proud to still call it home. In her free time, she enjoys gardening, baking, and tackling creative home projects. She loves getting outside, whether it’s scuba diving (admittedly in spots a little closer to the equator), snowboarding, or exploring new local spots with friends and family.
