Since graduating high school, I went on to get my Associate’s of Science Degree from Dixie State College of Utah. After enjoying the awesome sun & social scene at Dixie, I moved up to Ogden to attend Weber State University where I graduated with a BS in Rocket Science, or maybe it was Health Promotions (a.k.a. Preventative Wellness). I always get them confused! Silly me. After graduating I worked for 6 months in Salt Lake (still living in Ogden—why? Fantastic roommates I couldn’t bear to leave. Don’t recommend the commute, though!) at the State Health Department and then moved back to St. George and started working in Marketing/Promotions for a local car dealership (currently still there—6 years!). While I was still in St. George, I decided to visit a friend in Salt Lake and go country swing-dancing at Trolley Square one fateful 4th of July weekend in 2005. It was there I saw the man I was going to marry—Brandon Vandermyde. We met initially at Dixie College, went on one date, and 5 years later we met again. We danced, and the next night I invited him to join us for the Oakley Rodeo. Then Monday was fireworks at Sugarhouse Park—and there were fireworks if ya know what I mean…wink, wink!! (I know, feel free to roll your eyes, but I couldn’t resist.) So after about a year of dating, we married in Salt Lake but settled in St. George (now in Bloomington). Brandon does Commercial Real Estate and umpires College Baseball on the side every spring. On December 26, 2008, we had our first (and only) baby, Mason Ace Vandermyde. Now, our life revolves around him—we love it!
See you at the reunion!
