Kerri graduated from Altamont High School in 1995 and Provo College in 1996. She was a licensed nail technician. She served and loved her clients in the Uintah Basin for 18 years.
Kerri was raised on a 4th generation cattle ranch. She loved horses and all things cowboy. She participated in horse 4-H from the age of 9 and later served as a horse 4-H leader. She participated in rodeo queening and held several titles in Duchesne County. Most notably she was in the Dinosaur Round-up Rodeo Royalty for 3 years and served as Dinosaur Roundup Rodeo Queen in 1995. She loved everything rodeo---particularly watching her children participate in the sport that was so close to her heart.
