My life as of now...

Logan, UT, United States
Hello! My name is Alyson Shepherd. I love to plan events and hope to make it my career someday. I am not shy by any means and know what I want in life. I love to be involved in almost everything and find that diving right in is the best and most exciting way to learn something new. I truly love to gain a sense of culture and never want to become complacent when it comes to discovering new people and new ways of doing things. I have a wonderful life with everything I could need!
