Wendy was born on an army base in Fort Stewart, Georgia and raised in the suburbs of Chicago, Illinois. She has been married to her high school sweetheart Zach since 2007 and moved to Yakima, Washington in 2014. She has been in the healthcare field as a Certified Nursing Assistant for over 15 years and gradually moved to a Restorative Aide in the nursing home. Eventually she took the opportunity to switch careers and started with Therapeutic Associates in 2021 in Yakima.
In the beginning of 2023 Zach and Wendy decided to go on another adventure with their dog (Akira) and 20-year-old cat (snowflake) down to Medford, Oregon. She and her husband Zach love to camp and hike. They especially like to go on drives to discover new parts of the Pacific Northwest.
