Grace enjoys exploring the great outdoors, particularly through hiking. She visits to North Carolina allowing her to connect with nature and challenge herself physically. “A fun fact about me is that I love thrifting.

Her favorite genres are drama and horror, and she can often be found at the theater thanks to her AMC Stubbs membership. “My next concert is in October, and I can’t wait to experience more live music!” Grace explained.
