Who am I?

I am a mother of three kids who is married to a high school Counselor and basketball coach. I'm a former social studies teacher with a Master's Degree in Instructional Technology. I played college basketball at Ricks College, San Diego State University, and BYU. I was a high school valedictorian and graduated from college with a 3.9 GPA. I am a hunter, a waterskiier, a golfer...and now a recreational triathlete. I enjoy coaching basketball at the local health club, and I currently work part-time as the marketing director for NAI Commerce One Realty, an independently owned commercial real estate firm that is part of NAI Global's network of over 325 commercial real estate offices in 55 countries. I have a real estate license and I'm pursuing my CCIM designation.

I was raised on a farm in Southeast Idaho, the daughter of a potato farmer and physical education teacher. I'm the granddaughter of a WWII fighter pilot on my mom's side, and a POW who escaped from the German army on my dad's side.

I grew up listening to Rush Limbaugh and other talk radio programs, including sports talk stations like San Fran's KNBR, instead of watching MTV and listening to mindless FM stations.
