Having subsequently received a bachelor degree in Childhood Development, with Honors, from Brigham Young University, she returned to B.Y.U. later in life to earn a Master of Organizational Behavior, with a graduate G.P.A. of 3.99. She was an excellent student, evidenced by a scholarship from the Department of Organizational Behavior, and a Dean's Award from the Graduate School of Management. At the U.V.S.C. Women's Conference in fall, 1995, she was honored as the outstandingly successful single mother of the year, for Utah County. Working at the Center for Personal and Career Development at U.V.S.C., she dedicated herself to teaching interpersonal, career, and basic life skills, through classroom instruction and one-on-one consulting. She developed close personal relationships, provided individually tailored counsel and guidance, and shared her clients' problems.
Her life was dedicated firstly to her children, and secondly to teaching, helping, and serving others. She spent her last energies teaching her children of their infinite worth and of the infinite worth of every individual.
