I first began learning about weather at a young age while
growing up in Shenandoah, Iowa. My dad spent his spare
time as a pilot, so knowing the weather was important for
his flight plans. At first I wanted to be a pilot like my
dad, but then I decided my interest was in weather and
made it my career.
I attended Iowa State University and graduated in May 2006
with a degree in Meteorology. While in college, I
interned for the weekend meteorologists at news stations
in Omaha, Nebraska and Des Moines, Iowa. I was also a
volunteer at the National Weather Service in Des Moines,
Iowa where I researched my thesis on bow echoes. I joined
the Skywatch 13 Weather Team in October 2006 as weekend
meteorologist.
When I'm not forecasting the weather, I like to get
outside and enjoy it! I spent a couple summers in sunny
California during my college years as a Disneyland Cast
Member. Summer is my favorite season because of the warm
temperatures and thunderstorms. I also like spending time
with my family and friends, traveling and boating.
Recently, I joined the Sunflower Chapter of the
Association for Women in Science (AWIS) here in Topeka.
