Identification assist!

Hey there, trying again with a photo that's easier to see! Anyone know what miss Ruth Ann is? She was gifted to me and I can't seem to get a good identity to care for her properly! Greg says hoya of some sort but what kind if it is? Thanks!!
2ft to light, direct
2” pot with drainage

Hi, Christa! Welcome to Greg!! (I thought I was in a cold area ... I just saw your location!)

Your plant is definitely a wax plant. It's a HoyaοΏΌ ... but I think it may be a type of hybrid. i'm going to tag @HoyaAddict (because she knows so much about hoyas) but I'm going οΏΌοΏΌοΏΌto take a stab as well. Let me look on my oasis and get the name of mine.

I think it's like a Hoya Bilobata.
I think mine is the hybrid DS-70, but Bilobata is pretty close.
@sarahsalith thank you!! I LOVE my Hoyas so I was excited at the prospect that she was one! Just didn't want to accidentally kill her if I treated her wrong!
And it is certainly cold here πŸ₯Ά but lovely all glittery and white and quietly blanketed in snow! Only problem is my daylight 🀣
@ShadesofGreen Hoyas are GREAT!! They love to be slightly neglected so they fit well perfectly with me. (:
I LOVE hoyas 😍 I've got a curtisii that I'm absolutely head over heels in love with and keep looking at it, willing it to grow faster and trying to ignore my inner plant mom voice saying "she needs just a sip, it's okay." When she's clearly FINE 🀣 I just want her to take over the world and i'm impatient!
A part of it looks like copper spoons kalanchoe …
