I entered the Medicare Insurance business right after receiving my license for Aflac. While representing both, I decided my calling was to focus solely on Medicare. There's nothing I love more than helping out individuals, especially concerning their health and well-being.

I am very community-oriented. Since 2009, I have volunteered and am President of and Fundraising Chair for Our Place Community Outreach, the west-central neighborhood's food/hygiene/clothing bank. I was the 2000 president of the American Advertising Federation's Spokane Chapter. Other organizations I have worked with: Better Business Bureau, Spokane Parks Foundation, Spokane Ecological Society, West Plains Chamber of Commerce, Oldies Preservation Society, St. Davids Episcopal Church, Deer Park Rotary, and for 6 years I served on the EWU Alumni Association Board.

I have been married to a wonderful man, Doug, for 37 years and have three grown sons and one grandson- all of who I am blessed to be right here in Spokane.
