I grew up in a small town in the southwest part of the state, and I have always had rural Nebraska in my heart.

Before joining the Center team, I had a strong working relationship with some Center staff members who lived in my area. I always felt reassured I was referring businesses to a place that I knew would take care of them and assist them in reaching their goals. I knew if there was ever an opportunity to work for the Center, I would jump on it in a heartbeat. Working here now, I feel like I am finally home.

I am lucky to collaborate with a team that welcomes the knowledge I bring from previous experiences and also one that I can learn a lot from myself. Helping others is in my blood and the Center is the perfect fit.

I was blessed to have the opportunity to move back closer to family in 2017, as I lost my mom to cancer in 2021. I cherished the time I had with her and I continue to love spending my free time completing home improvement projects with my dad, coaching, and watching my nephews and niece in all of their activities.
