BOARD OF DIRECTORS

Krystal Beckler

I have lived in Mandan, ND my entire life.  I have been employed at NISC/Capturis since October 2008. Before that, I worked at a daycare center for 7 years.    I have been volunteering with Providence Ranch Ministries since 2013, but my love for horses started when I was very young.  In my free time, I enjoy archery, kayaking, geocaching, riding bike and volunteering at church doing stage lighting.  

Jessica Hegel

I live in Bismarck with my husband, Chad, daughter Kylee, our 3 dogs, Mustang, Harbinger, and Ginger,  and 3 cats, Persephone, Heather, and Rey.  I currently work as a Veterinary Technician.   I have always loved horses and animals.  I love being able to work with the horses and getting to know the kids.  In my free time, I like taking the dogs for walks, playing volleyball, watching TV,  and reading.

I was born and raised in Williston ND and graduated from Williston High school in 1970.  I attended Williston State College.  I returned to Williston State College later in life and received my Associates Degree in 2000.  We moved from Williston to Bismarck in 2007 where we reside currently.  My husband, Marshall, and I have a blended family with 5 grown children who all live in ND and have given us 11 grandchildren ranging in age from 1 month to 21.  They keep us busy following their activities and spending time with them and their families.  Marshall is retired and I work part-time for the State of ND.  My hobbies and interests include reading, riding horseback, racquetball, movies, traveling and watching my grandchildren activities!
