I grew up in Milbank, South Dakota and moved to Watertown, South Dakota in 1997 to attend Lake Area Technical Institute. I graduated from Lake Area in 1999 with a degree in Accounting/Banking & Finance. 

 

I have been working for J&R since July of 1999 and have truly enjoyed learning about the livestock industry because it is such a big part of this state.

 

My husband Brad grew up in the Lake Norden area and works for the City of Lake Norden. We have one daughter, Keira, who was born in September of 2006. I enjoy scrap booking, traveling, and doing outdoor activities with my family.
