Life story

Born July 12, 1989 in Rochester NY. Bryna had a way of making everyone feel special. Always a free spirit with her very own sense of style. She was gentle, soft spoken and often quiet, almost shy (except with her friends). She was kind, patient and compassionate. She had a way about her that made people feel at ease and they found her easy to talk to and relate to. She explored every aspect of creating art. From drawing and painting to clay and photography. Everyone of them was filled with passion and wonder. The countless years of dance class and recitals. She tried numerous sports – soccer, volleyball, basketball, horseback riding, fencing, colorguard and swimming. Yes, fencing. Bryna was also musical. She played the clarinet, saxophone and guitar. Bryna wanted to try it all. She packed in many “phases of Bryna” in her time here. She attended and graduated from Livonia High School as a junior in June of 2006. Attended FLCC and graduated with an Assoc Degree in Fine Arts and moved to North Carolina in 2009. Bryna had 2 beautiful son’s – Levi born in April 2015 and Ayden born in April 2017. She will always love them to the moon and back.
