What, who or how and when did you first get involved with the Iditarod?

I first became involved with the Iditarod after doing the Willow 300. My friend Margo Olsom messaged me to come up and get involved with the Willow 300. And after that, I got hooked and signed up to be a volunteer veterinarian for Iditarod.

What is your Why? Why are you here TODAY and involved with the Iditarod?

Tell me about just one of your most memorable Iditarod experiences.

One of my most memorable Iditarod experiences was my first year when I was stationed in Rohn, up in the mountains. We just had a wonderful team that got together really well, everybody pitched in together and we had a great time. It was probably the best experience of my life.

What in life do you know for sure?

What I know for sure in life is expect the unexpected and just go with the flow.
