Who am i?

While raising three beautiful children, a new position at South Weber Elementary School (SWE) was created just for me. For eleven years I produced a weekly video news broadcast called SWKN (South Weber Kids’ News). Each week I typically involved 50 or more students in the broadcast. This significantly increased student attendance on Monday mornings when the news was broadcast. My schedule was flexible and I did freelance artwork on the side.

Seven years ago, I began to take an active interest in local politics. I served as a city council member as well as a mayor for South Weber City. This is when I began to realize what an impact digital information and social media have on the public. I strongly desire to pass on good and honest information to the public. I want to do this in an interesting and creative way so the public will pay attention. Consequently, I enrolled in the Web and Graphic Design program at Davis Technical College (DTC) to improve my abilities in this respect.

Other things I love to do with my hands are conduct choirs, play piano, read, and play any racquet sports. I also love hiking, camping, travelling, and watching movies with my family. And one final fact about me is that I jumped out of a plane at the request of my SWE students. I landed in the school field on field day. It was the scariest thing I have ever done. I dressed as the school’s mascot – a banana.
