We did not want them to go unrecognized, so we want to welcome and introduce Grant West, our new Office Manager, and Frances Travis our new Administrative Assistant!We took a few minutes to this week to get to know these two for what life looks like outside of work!
Get to know... Grant West, Office Manager
Q: Where did you grow up?
A: I grew up in Fayetteville, AR
Q: What does life look like outside of work?
A: I live with my girlfriend, Suzanne, and her 3 yr. old daughter, Ruby. We love to cook and eat interesting food together. Suzanne is a pastry chef. I enjoy teaching Ruby all the little wonders of the world, and I love her learning spirit. I love to read, especially non-fiction, though I am currently engrossed in an endless fantasy novel. I am a diehard basketball fanatic. I play when I can and watch far too much NBA. Recently, I also coached youth basketball in Fayetteville. I love to laugh and joke and I always appreciate dry sarcasm and wit. I love a good conversation over beer.
Q: What are you most proud of?
A: I am most proud of things that I make or build. Cooking a delicious meal that others enjoy always makes me feel good. I’m proud of the garden Suzanne and I made. I’m mostly just proud I get to enjoy my life with the close family and friends that I have.
Q: Where do you like to vacation?
A: I like to visit the great cities of the world. I have travelled in recent years to New York, Chicago, Hong Kong, Rome, Brussels, and Berlin. Breaking from the norm, however, Iceland is currently the object of my future-vacation eyes.
Q: What are some random/silly facts about yourself?
A:
- I often wear athletic shorts under my pants so that I can be ready to play basketball at a moment’s notice.
- I am a dancing machine.
- I suppose I could probably burp the “Star Spangled Banner” if I felt so inclined.
Q: What is your life’s motto?
A: "Against the assault of laughter, nothing can stand." –Mark Twain
Q: Where did you grow up?
A: Cleburne County, Arkansas, I was raised in a small town north of Heber Springs, Arkansas. After high school I married a gentleman who lived in Heber Springs area and resided there for 12 years.
Q: What does life look like outside of work?A: We are very active in our church. We attend and work a lot of horse events. We love the outdoors, fishing, riding horses, riding 4-wheelers, and yard work!
Q: What are you most proud of?
A: My relationship with God, my daughter, my husband, my family, and friends!
Q: Where do you like to vacation?
A: I love Gulf Shores, Alabama. I love the ocean breeze and relaxation of the ocean itself. I love how you can get lost in the sand and stars!
Q: What are some silly or random facts about yourself?
A: I love crafts. I like to make it instead of buying it. I can see a diamond in the rough, make a few changes to something old and create a new purpose for it.
Q: What is your life's motto?
A: "I can do all things through Christ who strengthens Me" - Philippians 4:13
Always keep a smile on your face; you never know whose day you will change with it!
