• This person is from Taos, MO, married 20 years, and has a high school aged son.
• This person works at Conservation Federation of Missouri as the Membership Development Coordinator. And serves on many boards and committees.
• Favorite quote, “We but mirror the world. All the tendencies present in the outer world are to be found in the world of our body. If we could change ourselves, the tendencies in the world would also change. As a man changes his own nature, so does the attitude of the world change towards him. This is the divine mystery supreme. A wonderful thing it is and the source of our happiness. We need not wait to see what others do.” – Mahatma Gandhi – In short, “You must be the change you want to see in the world.”
• Little known fact … in high school this person was the JCHS mascot, Jasper the Jaybird and says, “It was the best and ya get to be goofy and no one knows who you are!” Her role as Jasper helped prepare her for the role as CUBmaster … sometimes being goofy and fun helps when interacting with others.
• This person volunteers in order to give back to her community. She has been involved in Boy Scouts since her son joined as a Tiger in 1^st  In November of 2020 her son earned his Eagle Rank and she continues to give her time to the Scouts.
• Since 2012 this person has had many roles with the Boy Scouts of America – Troop and Pack Committee Chair, District Committee Member. Her favorite part is working with other dedicated volunteers … and in addition loves that this network of people continue to inspire her to do more in our community.
