I have gained a wealth of experience in many different jobs and sought better ways in which to serve the public. Having worked as an E.M.T. with an ambulance service in Fremont County, I learned that we are all connected as a community. Currently serving District #11 for over 21 years in Human Resources, I have driven a half a million miles from Canon City and enjoy serving Spring Creek, bringing with it the daily interaction with students and faculty. I
have been rescuing Doberman Pinschers for over 20 years and had eight at
one time. As of late, I have
a special needs Doberman. Zach,
who is deaf from birth, was left tied to a tree most of his life because
the owners thought he couldn’t learn.
He is a beautiful dog and my greatest rescue, because we speak to
each other in sign language. My
husband and I own a winning drag race team, consisting of a Super Gas
’27 Brogie Roadster and a Super Comp custom dragster, currently
competing in Division 5 of the NHRA Sportsman Drag Racing Series. Reaching
speeds of up to 170 mph, we enjoy bringing excitement to race fans of all
ages. The most fun we have
had with the cars was when we brought them to Spring Creek to show how an
idea is the spark and the motivation is the fuel to get you to the finish
line of life. My philosophy is this: Live life in the present and learn from past mistakes. Each disappointment is an opportunity in disguise. If you spend too much time looking over your shoulder, you may overlook the best rewards of today. Each person has something valuable to contribute and you have the power to influence another, no matter how superficial or insignificant it may seem to you at the time. |
