Encore Pavement cares about their employees on a personal level. It is admirable when a company can run efficiently and professionally, all while creating loyalty from employees and customers.
What do you like to do in your spare time?
I enjoy watching movies with my husband and three boys in the home theater room my husband built for us. I also love to read, drink cocktails and bake. My favorite restaurant for dinner is Redrock Canyon Grill and for breakfast is HomeGrown.

People will be surprised to know that I am from Texas, moved to Kansas with the military and never left. Also, my husband and I only have sisters (three for me and seven for him), but we only have our three boys.

I am involved with Junior Achievement, a non-profit organization that inspires and prepares young people to succeed.
