5 Things About Me: Grace Barnett

1. I grew up in Pawleys Island, SC before moving to Mammoth Lakes, CA. The beach did NOT prepare me for the snow.
2. I have a 1.5 year old Golden Retriever named Daisy. She is the best.
3. I teach STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, and Math) for grades 3-5 at Mammoth Elementary
4. Love to bake and my neighbor recently asked me to do the cupcakes for her wedding
5. I add flaky sea salt to almost every meal. Maldon is my favorite brand.

5 Fast Questions

1. What’s something people should add to their Netflix (or any streaming service) or Podcast queue? The Good Place
2. What’s your favorite training shoe right now (or ever)? ASICS Novablast 2
3. If you have to go fast food, what’s your go-to? Chick-fil-a for sure! Hopefully it’s before 10:30am so I can get the minis.
4. Do you have any connections to Raleigh or North Carolina? My fiance and I went on our 2nd date in Raleigh! It was the halfway point between my house and where he was stationed for the Marine Corps at the time.
5. The sport of Track & Field would be more exciting (or better) if… there were more relays post college maybe!
