My husband, William, and I are originally from Clarinda, Iowa where our families both still reside. We welcomed our son Beckett into our family in June of this year and have been enjoying becoming parents. We also have two Mini Aussies, Nash (6) and Kota (4) that go almost everywhere with us!

My favorite thing to do in my free time is spend it with my family and dogs.

"The best way to predict the future is to create it." - A. Lincoln


𝗛𝗼𝘄 𝗱𝗼 𝘆𝗼𝘂 𝘀𝗽𝗲𝗻𝗱 𝘆𝗼𝘂𝗿 𝘀𝘂𝗺𝗺𝗲𝗿 𝗯𝗿𝗲𝗮𝗸𝘀?
I spend a lot of my summer breaks judging horse shows and static judging for 4H, FFA, and other youth shows. I also like to be outdoors any way possible whether I am kayaking, hiking, riding or driving horses, or just hanging out with my family.


𝗪𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝗶𝘀 𝗼𝗻𝗲 𝘁𝗵𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝘆𝗼𝘂'𝗿𝗲 𝗽𝗮𝘀𝘀𝗶𝗼𝗻𝗮𝘁𝗲 𝗮𝗯𝗼𝘂𝘁?
I have a very large passion for advocating for the agriculture industry. It can be anything from the traditional production agriculture to newer sectors such as communications, biotechnology, and leadership.

I have co-owned my own business as an Supervised Agriculture Experience project for FFA since I was a Freshmen in high school. I purchased a team of draft horses with my stepdad and started giving carriage rides for hire. The business has more than doubled in size since we have started and I still help run this business on the weekends and on breaks with him.
