Brenda Fives

What is your favorite vacation you have ever been on?

Australia -The Great Barrier Reef on Heron Island. I went snorkeling in The Great Barrier reef and saw a Great White Shark. I also got to watch Loggerhead Turtles, weighing 350 pounds, come ashore to lay their eggs on the beach.

Something you might not know about me...

I’m scared to death of cows.

In my free time my favorite thing to do is...

Make lap quilts to donate to nursing homes and homeless shelters.

Brenda has been a team member with Shawn and Tracy since 2018. In her role, she manages marketing by creating advertisements for local news sources, designing greeting cards, and coordinating events such as our local shredding event and client appreciation gatherings.

She also served as the Administrator for both the graduate and undergraduate programs and was a key staff member for student-related issues.

In her free time, Brenda enjoys making lap quilts to donate to local nursing homes and VA centers. When she is not sewing, she loves spending time with her dog, Teddy, a three-year-old Westie Poo. Additionally, she enjoys cooking, reading, camping, and traveling.

Brenda is a proud grandmother to two beautiful granddaughters, Riley and Lila. They are a constant joy and a blessing to watch as they grow into amazing young ladies with bright futures ahead of them.
