I graduated from Mankato State College with an Elementary Ed degree and Early Childhood minor. I didn't like the preschool student teaching and knew I wouldn't ever do that. Never say never. I have owned Preschools in Hubbard and in Radcliffe. I taught Elementary Library Skills for 3 years in Radcliffe. After Bob and I bought the welding shop and moved to Jewell in 1989 I substituted at the South Hamilton Schools until it wasn't fun anymore. Now my days are filled with work and being an EMT and Fire Fighter 1 with Jewell Fire and Rescue where I am an Officer. In my spare time I am working on quilts. Bob, passed away from MS November 10th, 2022

In September, I was elected 5th Vice President of the Iowa Firemen's Association. The Iowa Firemen's Association is a state organization of firefighters, dedicated to the improvement of the Iowa Fire Service and the general public, through legislation, better training, minimum standards for fire apparatus and equipment, fire prevention, public relations and information, as well as the various other issues that face the fire service from time to time. This is a 7 year commitment to the IFA; I will work my way up to Past President. If you are interested in us the website address is: http://www.iafireassn.org/
