About Me
I was raised in Salt Lake City, Utah and am proud resident of St. George for the past 32 years. I have a great love for the desert landscape and the people who reside in it.
My husband Darrin and I own a commercial contracting business and raised four children on an acre in Little Valley (back when Little Valley could be considered “rural”).
After loving the rural life for 25 years, we moved to downtown St. George. We have loved the opportunity to experience the beauty, sights and sounds of our lovely downtown core.
I have a dog, two cats, a love for container gardening, a podcast addiction, and a garage full of bicycles. I enjoy cycling with my husband, hiking in our beautiful environment, collecting and promoting art, loving people and recognizing their inherent goodness, creating safe community spaces, and volunteering for and promoting our local not-for-profit groups.
