Regina has deep roots in Oregon. She was born and raised in Bend, spent a few years in Portland, then came back to Central Oregon, where she raised her family. After devoting years to being a stay at home mom, Regina went on to work for the American Red Cross for seven years, and then worked in medical clinics, in both scheduling and billing, for ten years. Now a resident of Redmond, she loves spending time in the kitchen experimenting with new recipes. She enjoys reading, playing the piano, and spending time with her grandchildren.
