Personal Interests
Claire’s ties to the Puget Sound area run deep; in fact, her family has been in Seattle and the surrounding communities since the turn of the twentieth century. Claire herself was born and raised in the West Sound, and she and her husband now enjoy life there with their rescue dog, Eva. On rainy weekends, Claire loves making a fire and curling up with a classic novel and a pot of black coffee. Claire’s favorite pastimes, however, are those that take her outdoors: camping, boating, skiing, horseback riding, and hosting bonfires for family and friends.
