This page is to tells you a little about myself. I am married with 3 adult children: my oldest son graduated from Ag mechanics program at WITC (now Northwood Tech) in New Richmond in 2018. My second son graduated from UW-River Falls with degrees in animal science and Ag business in May 2020. Both boys are third generation members of the Alpha Psi chapter of AGR on the UW-RF campus. My daughter is also a graduate of UW-River Falls, earning a degree in animal science with a chemistry minor in May 2021, and is currently teaching high school science. My time is taken up with our hobby farm where we have a small flock sheep, along with some occasional goats or cattle, cats and 3 dogs. I enjoy reading, flower gardening, sewing travelling and spending time with family and the dogs and just being outside. I find time in my travels to collect bear figurines, bells and postcards.
