Infact, her love for all things DIY led her to become a valued member of the Home Depot team during the pandemic. From there, her adventurous spirit led her to explore new horizons as a carpenter's apprentice, showcasing her versatility and willingness to learn. 

Makayla is marrying her high school sweetheart in the fall of 2023. Fueling their shared dreams, their next goal is to acquire land and convert a school bus into a charming tiny home. They hope to embark on a journey across the country, accompanied by their three beloved pets.
