Dr. Lockhard grew up in a military family (her dad: Air Force and step-dad: Marines) and she married into the Navy. After years of moving around, her family is excited to put roots down in San Antonio. She loves using emojis and all things technology (surprise!), enjoys staying active with her family, working out at Orange Theory Fitness and is the proudest lacrosse/karate/swim team mom in Alamo Heights.
