Teton Valley is important to all that live here for many different reasons and gives to all of us in many different ways. Therefore, it is our duty as citizens of this valley to keep her healthy and environmentally thriving. As a career educator and former Teton District school board member, I am passionate about teaching and learning. I see a need for more outreach and development in the valley community in regard to people knowing about who TVCR is, what has been accomplished, and future goals. We must keep our valley healthy currently so that future generations will have a valley they can comfortably live in and on. I appreciate the proactivity of TVCR and want to contribute to the environmental sustainability of our valley through helping all stakeholders understand and learn the role they play in that sustainability.

As a born and raised Idahoan, I have always been drawn to enjoying all the outdoor activities it has to offer. These include snowboarding, biking, hiking, painting, and adventuring with my furry companion, Archie. I landed in the sustainability world in college, and have pursued engagement within local organizations since. Previously working in the agriculture sector, and waste management in Jackson, I transitioned my focus to Teton Valley after moving here in 2023. I am dedicated to the idea of a circular economy and particularly LOVE talking about food waste and composting. I’m so excited to be here!”
