Heather also graduated from Kansas State University in 1997 with a degree in Human Ecology. In her first years after college, Heather spent time as an editor for a few locally published magazines, but found her true calling as a stay-at-home mother with the birth her daughter, Hannah in 2003.

Heather believed in the gift of life and was determined to be an organ donor upon her death. She was able to fulfill this last wish. She would encourage all who can to do the same to bring joy into the lives of others. Heather was also a dedicated mother to her pets, whether cats, dogs, turtles, birds or fish. She longed for proper treatment and good homes for all animals in need.
