• Assist farm and ranch families with their business planning and goal setting
•  

I have been the Farm Business Management Education Instructor in the Bottineau Office since July of 2022. Previously, I was the instructor for the Agriculture Management and Technology program at Dakota College at Bottineau. Prior to coming to Dakota College, I worked as a private consultant, a data analyst, and a lecturer at NDSU. I am originally from a dairy farm in northern Minnesota. I attended NDSU for my bachelor’s and master’s degrees in Agricultural Economics and Agribusiness and Applied Economics, respectively. Shortly after, I attend Kansas State University in Manhattan, KS for my doctorate in Agricultural Economics. I currently reside in Bottineau with my husband and our three children. We enjoy camping, fishing, and hunting. I also plan to start doing some gardening again when time permits. I am passionate about helping family farms meet their goals and gain a better understanding of their business.
