Beginning in college, Rhonda has been involved in a variety of non-profit organizations. At Kearney State University, she was an active member of the social fraternity of Alpha Phi Omega (APO). As an APO, she led a number of fund-raising efforts and volunteer projects.

Through her efforts with the Student Sponsor Partners program, Rhonda was able to help an at-risk high school student graduate from high school by providing the financial support for attending a non-public high school and provided as a mentor/coach for several years. Rhonda’s student successfully graduated high school and went on to complete college.

Rhonda has a bachelor’s degree from Kearney State University (now University of Nebraska – Kearney) and has a MBA with emphasis in Finance from the University of Connecticut. She enjoys running, kayaking, playing tennis, traveling and spending time with her family and Murphy, their yellow Labrador retriever.
