Becky grew up in the small town of Ellsworth, Wisconsin. She graduated from Luther College in Decorah with a BA in Nursing. A formative experience for her in college was working for four summers at Luther Point Bible Camp in Grantsburg, Wisconsin. Her dream job was to become a parish nurse to combine her love of ministry and nursing. She completed an independent study in Parish Nursing while at Luther. After graduation, she worked at Winneshiek County Memorial Hospital, Ossian Senior Hospice, and Fillmore County Public Health. She enjoys gardening, scrapbooking, and reading. She and her husband, Randy, live on a hobby farm with their three adult children: Nathan, Britta, and Markus.
