About Elizabeth


Elizabeth is multi-passionate, curious about people and their stories, and unable to hold just one or two "titles." She's a mom, veteran, founder of the Sgt. BARK coloring books, Senior Public Affairs Specialist for the federal government, owner of the PR firm Elizabeth Audrey Consulting, and Mrs. California America 2021.
Her favorite things to do are take her boys fishing, camping, horseback riding, and canoeing. Her children especially like to challenge her in Mario Kart, where she is easily defeated, but she always gets them back with a game of Monopoly.
An avid volunteer, she has coached youth baseball and soccer, volunteered with a local domestic violence hotline, served as a board member for the Washington Chamber of Commerce and CASA (Court Appointed Special Advocate), teaches child sexual abuse prevention classes through Darkness to Light’s Stewards of Children program, and mentored at-risk youth. She was also captain of the dance team for the RoadRunners, a semi-professional baseball team in St. George, Utah.
Following her career in the military, Elizabeth began working her way through college as a single mom and became a journalist; first working in print journalism as a sports editor, a crime reporter, and eventually managing editor. She is the founder of St. George news, the largest news and media organization in southern Utah, and volunteered for many years as a judge for the Society of Professional Journalists' annual Media in Excellence awards. She still teaches journalism and public relations.
Elizabeth worked as a speechwriter and Communications Director for the U.S. House of Representatives. She then worked in public affairs for the U.S. Army and as the Director of Communications for the U.S. Navy. She now works for the Department of the Interior.
She is a published author and most enjoys working with children - a cause she believes is her purpose in life.
