PERSONAL
Dustyn is originally from Doylestown, Pennsylvania. After a few relocations due to her dad’s career, her family put roots down in Maryland in the late nineties. She and her husband Michael currently live in Pasadena, where they dabble in boating on the Magothy River with their three fuzzy animals (Zach, Zola & Zeus). They enjoy spending time with Michael’s three (grown) daughters when the girls’ time allows - of course. Dustyn enjoys serving her community in her spare time. She was previously elected for and served her neighbors on the City of College Park City Council for two terms, served as Neighborhood Watch Coordinator and more recently, served as Vice President of her Condo Association Board, where she met Damian.
