She looks forward to being part of the continued development and growth of the care team model at the U. She has loved her career in anesthesia.

Carol's greatest love is her family. Her husband, Curtis, two boys and two girls. She has been lucky enough to gain another daughter and two sons through her children's marriages. Grandma is the best “gig" yet. She is Grandma to 9 grandchildren with one on the way. When she isn't working or with her family she enjoys anything active…skiing, hiking, biking, swimming, OTF. She loves to do these things with her family when she can coerce them into joining her. If they can't be convinced she enlists her friends, a group of amazing women!​
