"Hey GOD, what up?" - I started many prayers like this. Why? So many friends asked. "Because I may know the written prayers, but sometimes I just need a friend and He is my friend.". The foundation for my love for the Lord was built by my parents but my love for Him came through my life and experiences. I was so close to him I considered becoming a Nun. The draw was so strong but when I prayed for His guidance, I realized how much I was needed elsewhere to spread His word. So, when you really need a friend and need a prayer "Hey GOD, what up?"

I graduated from Gahanna Lincoln High School in 2009 and graduated with a BA in Theatre from Otterbein University in 2013. In the fall, after graduation I hopped on a bus from Columbus to New York City, "The City" and I haven't looked back. During my career in theatre, I produced and directed several off-Broadway productions, worked in film production on numerous short films, toured with several Disney shows and then marketed Disney on Broadway. I also sold merchandise for many Broadway shows and worked with the marketing team for the Broadway musical Allegiance - "Hey Guys! We're on Broadway!".

I have 5 loves in my life

My family, what can I say but you made me who I am. I love you with all my heart and know that I will be with you in the end.

Kevin, the love of my life, YOU are my soulmate. Our love burned bright from our first never ending date and only got stronger every day. Same Dough!

Theatre, it all started when I saw the Lion King on tour at the age of 12 and I was completely engulfed. My theatre life came full circle when I worked on the marketing team that supported Disney on Broadway and The Lion King was one of my projects.

Ohio State Football and the Olympics, need I say more. And OSU Olympians - Heaven best be ready because I can get loud when my OSU athletes compete AND Simone Biles "I Love Her"

Friends, I hold all of my friends close to my heart. Whenever you needed a laugh, You Had Me, whenever you needed an encouraging word, You Had Me. Whenever you needed that swift kick in the … You Had Me. From the day we met, YOU HAD ME.

Today, I have my Grandparents Bill and Rose Falter, Bill and Edith Haselbarth, My Aunts Cathy and Mary Kay, Cousin John and my friends Danny and Chelsea with me as we sit by HIS side with everlasting life.

Someday, I will be joined to celebrate with HIM by my parents Chuck and Barb Falter, my love Kevin German, my brothers Matt and Rebecca Falter, and Adam and Caitlin Falter, my wonderful nephews and niece Colin, Aiden and Addison Falter, my countless Aunts, Uncles and cousins and my amazing friends.

Until we laugh together again...
