Biography
I am a longtime Goshen County resident and a former EWC student. My family of origin has lived in Wyoming since the 1880’s, as has my husband’s. I was born in Sheridan and lived in Powell for most of my childhood. I graduated from Torrington High School and have lived in the county since then.
My husband and I run a cow/calf operation in northern Goshen County, and I taught at THS for 17 years.
We have two adult sons, two treasured daughters-in-law, and three amazing grandchildren.
Experience
I was an adult student at EWC, so I am familiar with the student experience there. I have also served on the Goshen County School District Board of Trustees, so I have a good understanding of the roles and responsibilities of a board member.
Education
I have earned a BA from the University of Wyoming and a masters degree from National University.
Community Activities and Memberships
I have belonged to many community groups during the past decades.
Why I am Running
I truly value this institution, it’s leadership, and it’s employees. Eastern Wyoming College is a vital part of our community, and I hope to help it grow and thrive during the upcoming years.
