I earned an Advanced Counseling skills certificate and soon became an addictions counselor. (Remember, I’m all about helping others beat their bullies.)

I became a Gold Certified fitness instructor and personal trainer, leading group fitness classes for 35 years.

I’ve been married for more than 37 years to a great guy who went from CPA to CFO to CEO of a $44 billion business. He also loves to fly WWII aircraft.

Together, we have raised three wonderful sons and now enjoy two daughters through marriage as well as one grandson. I now understand the adage that you should have grandchildren first! 

We make it a priority to spend lots of time playing and praying, working out and just hanging out.

While I love being a boy mom,  I also cherish being an aunt. Every year, I run “Aunt Katie Kamp” for my older nieces to teach them about fitness, faith and fun.

(We’re a family who loves to eat pheasant — in pot pies, on the grill, with noodles … you name it.)

I love sweating because it means I’m keeping fit.

I’m a breast cancer survivor.
