About

I have a PhD in Political Science with an emphasis on Public Administration/Nonprofit Management and International Relations. I have bachelor’s and master’s degrees in communication. I’m a former member of the Utah House of Representatives.
First and foremost, I love people and love to learn about other people, cultures and traditions. I also love to speak, teach, train and workshop solutions. I feel incredibly blessed to be the cohost of Inside Sources on KSL NewsRadio. I also love to write and am the editor of a newsletter that goes out every weekday morning: Utah Policy. I write regularly for the Deseret News and occasionally for the Church News.
