I love Star Valley and can’t think of a better place to live. I grew up in Star Valley and like most young adults, I couldn’t wait to leave and go to the city. But after living away for 8 years and starting a family, my husband and I decided to move back to the country and mountains.
We realized the city life was not for us because we enjoy the outdoors and mountains. There was little open space and no mountains in Kansas. We enjoy going on horseback rides in the mountains and my husband enjoys training horses. My kids love to go to their Grandparents, where there enjoy 4wheelers, snowmobiles, and buggy rides pulled by Pie and Ice Cream. We love to go camping with our extended family. We also enjoy the family atmosphere here in Star Valley.
I attended Western Wyoming College and then went on to Idaho State University. I decided to study accounting in college because of classes I attended in high school. I enjoyed studying accounting and business administration in college and graduated with a Bachelors of Business Administration.
After finishing college my family decided to make a big change and move to Kansas. And boy was it a big change, no more mountains or abundance of public lands, but we were close to the city and all it offered. My husband worked in the running track and football turf industry and later worked in the airplane industry, while we were in Kansas. I worked as an Administrative Assistant for a nonprofit company.
