An avid baker, Amy delighted in creating intricate and delicious treats, often while catching up on her favorite baking shows. Her hobbies also included reading, engaging in Lego projects, and meticulously planning family trips to Disney. She also found joy in diamond painting and various crafts, always eager to start a new project.
