I grew up in the rural city of Mauston, WI where my parents operated a local tool and die shop and that is where I first learned my good work ethic. My parents were small business owners, and they lead by example that owning a business would require a lot of grit. After high school in Mauston, I started my undergraduate Bachelor of Science at UWSP and then achieved my doctoral degree from a joint AuD program from UW Stevens Point & UW Madison in 2007. After college, I returned to my roots in rural Wisconsin with my husband Frank. My husband Frank and I started a family together and have three beautiful children Sena, Jack, and Mary. Frank and I feel fortunate to have deep roots in our wonderful rural Wisconsin community which we call home.
