About me

I'm a stay-at-home mom in rural Alaska. I am going to school through a distance learning program at Ilisagvik College. I have two beautiful girls who both have more than their share of personality. I'm originally from Utah, but last year my husband got a job in a small village over 100 miles north of the Arctic Circle. So we uprooted our small family with a ten-day-old baby and a year-and-a-half old and headed into the unknown. It has been fun learning about the Inupiat culture and people. They have a great legacy to tell.
