I am a 3rd generation Wyomingite, proud mom of two stellar humans, and University of Wyoming Alum #GoPokes!

Born in Laramie and raised in Douglas, I was active in 4-H, Girl Scouts, and tormenting my three younger sisters. My family moved to Casper my sophomore year, where I attended Kelly Walsh high school. I was active in track, basketball, volleyball, Honor Society, and debate. Debate carried over to Casper College where I was part of the team that won Nationals. After earning an associate’s degree from Casper College, I went on to the University of Wyoming to complete my bachelors degree.

My 28-year career in the training and development industry began in 1996 with Dale Carnegie & Associates (DC&A). In 2003, motivated to be close to family and provide my kids with the childhood environment I had growing up, we moved back to Casper.

In 2018, I started Elevate Wyoming. As a certified facilitator and master trainer, I worked in both public and private sectors, with for-profit and non-profit organizations. I specialized in leadership development, team cohesion, conflict/change/crisis management, building consensus, culture and organizational alignment.

In August of 2025, I was hired to serve as the Executive Director for the Wyoming Foundation for Cancer Care. I am fortunate to have the opportunity to support our Wyoming residents diagnosed with cancer - easing the burden for Wyoming cancer patients and their families. I’m also a proud Rotarian, Chamber of Commerce member, and volunteer for Sleep in Heavenly Peace.

I know the importance of understanding issues from a variety of perspectives, leaning on experts to help me understand, and the critical importance of engaging those impacted by decisions made. Building partnerships, working together to solve challenges facing our Wyoming communities.

We are stronger together.

I would be honored to continue serving as the Representative for Casper’s House District 56.
