Tell us about your career:
Before starting my internship at CCEC, I worked at the North Dakota Department of Transportation for over a year as their Marketing and Communications Intern. After completing my time with the NDDOT, I accepted the position as Editor-in-Chief for The Spectrum, a student-organized newspaper at NDSU. I hope to continue my career in the communications field. If I ever get over my stage fright, singing would be my ideal side job!

Tell us about your family:
I am the daughter of Clarice and Bill Kesler. Clarice has worked for NDAREC for over 40 years. Bill works as the Financial Director for Stan Puklich Chevrolet. I have one sister, Kate Kesler. She is 21 months younger than me, but we are only a year apart in school. She is currently attending the University of North Dakota to earn a degree in Pre-med and Biochemistry while interning at NASA. We also have a pet cat named Reno. With both sides of the family combined, I have approximately 52 first cousins and 25 aunts and uncles!
