Dad was a Marine. … Moved to Las Vegas during her freshman year of high school. … Competed in pageants as a kid to get over her shyness. It was her mom’s idea; it worked. … Was a cheerleader in middle school and high school. … Graduate of Cimarron-Memorial High School. … Tended bar at Fiesta Rancho for four years before joining Revolver, and has been at Revolver since the day it opened. … Says she wasn’t a country music fan — and never had line danced — before joining Revolver, but loves it now. … Son Tyce is almost 1 year old. … Best part of her job: “I’m working with my best friends.”

On dealing with job-related acrophobia:

“I can (dance) all day on the floor, but on the bar (laughs and shakes her head). … I do it, but I have to mentally prepare myself right before that so I know the dance I’m doing and the steps. It’s because the bar’s not made for dancing. It’s short and it’s very scary to be up there. … (Laughs) But on the floor, I’m fine.”
