I have worked for the National Park Service since 1989. I am currently a Program Analyst and provide support and advise Program Managers in planning and managing their programs, operations and processes. I also conduct research, analyze data, identify trends and track and evaluate the daily operational and program performance of a 10 million plus budget. This turned out to be more than just a job for me – over the years I have met some of my closest friends and I can honestly say, that I am proud to be a part of the NPS family.

As a child I wanted to be an accountant. I have always had a passion for math and numbers. Also, as far as I could remember every job that I held I always ended up with the task of recording journal entries, conducting bank reconciliations or tracking expenses.

With gender discrimination still a relevant issue today, it is so important for women to not only vote, but also vote for their best interests to try and enact changes. My granddaughter is a lesbian, so I am mostly inspired for the steps taken and the changes made with the LGBTQ+ rights.
