When off the job, Connie enjoys traveling the back roads of Dane, Sauk and Iowa Counties, ever on the lookout for a good cup of coffee, a great view and interesting conversation. Whether spending a restful day on the Wisconsin River or watching a storm come across Lake Monona, sharing the moments with friends and family makes it worthwhile.

Connie has spent time “off the job” in the war zones of the former Yugoslavia working with Croatian, Serbian and Muslim refugees; she has also been involved in similar work much closer to home. Her commitment is to turn toward the disenfranchised parts of ourselves and others, and put what is learned from the experience to good use.
