This year I have a lot of things to be thankful for… A supportive family (and cuddly golden retriever). An incredible network of friends both near and far who go out of their way to keep me sane. A new apartment. A group of immensely passionate and selfless individuals I’ve had the pleasure of working with at my new job. The ability to travel and have adventures every once in awhile. And the chance to live in a wonderful little city like Des Moines…
