By age 12 she knew she wanted to be a park ranger when she grew up so that she could always be outside and share these special places with others. She firmly believes in, loves, and cherishes these amazing sites that belong to everyone and tell America’s story. BJ graduated from Utah Valley University with a degree in Earth Science/Environmental Management. She and her husband, Gerald, have been married 31 years and have four sons and one daughter.
