As the Director for County Cooperative Extension, I provide visionary leadership for Cooperative Extension units across the state to optimize administrative functions, elevate leadership, expand fiscal support and capitalize on partnerships to support local applied research and extension programming.

Spending 28-years at UC ANR in the 4-H Youth Development Program, has prepared me to effectively manage people and work towards solutions to advance programs, opportunities, and realize impacts.  I am a 1987 graduate from the University of Wisconsin at Stevens Point with a BS in Elementary Education with an Outdoor Education emphasis, and a 1991 graduate of Northern Illinois University with a MS in Outdoor Education.
