She has also served as a governor-appointed Commissioner on the Flathead Basin Commission, filling multiple roles including vice-chair, co-chair of the Education and Outreach Committee, and member of the Onsite Wastewater Committee. She has envisioned and developed numerous public programs and technical reports, as well as serving on many committees and groups throughout northwest Montana. She holds a Master of Science in Environmental Science and Management, where her thesis focused on aquatic invasive species, and has volunteered on marine conservation projects around the world.
