I have worked for SDSU Extension for 15 years, seven years in Grant County, eight years in Roberts County. I was born in Australia, raised in Oregon, and have now lived in the great state of South à£à£Ö±²¥Ðã for 33 years. I live on a farm with my husband Michael and am the mother of three children, Robert, age 30, Allen, age 29, and Melinda, age 25, a son-in-law, Dan, and an adorable 10 month old grandson, Brian. I love paint-by-number, playing the piano and vintage travel trailers.
