What is the most rewarding part of your job?
I like meeting people and learning what they do to make a living.
What suprised you most about working here?
The honesty, nothing is hidden. It’s all out in the open. I believe that’s what makes everyone get along.

Fishing, watching football or anything on TV. It seems to put a spell on me.
If someone writes a biography about you, what do you think the title should be?
“Lessons Learned!”

We rented a house right on the lake near Austin. That was awesome!

When I was 8 or 9, I was on 2 local TV shows, Chuckwagon Charlie and the Lew Dee Saturday night theater. (Lubbock natives may remember the shows)
Where do you see yourself in 20 years?
Hopefully, on a bank fishing with grandkids and great-grandkids.
What a pleasure it is having Randy on our team! He has the best stories to tell about his job in the field! I hope everyone enjoyed getting to know Randy a little better as much as I did! Who knew he was a TV star as a kid!
Thanks for reading,
L’Anna
