Having grown up in rural Saskatchewan on a mixed farm, Diana has been a lifelong, enthusiastic member of the agriculture community.

She received her Bachelor of Science in Agriculture from the University of Saskatchewan and shortly after moved to Alberta, where she has spent the last 15 years promoting agri-environmental practices and coordinating environmental grant programs for Alberta's producers and agriculture industry. 

She is passionate about travelling, and has had the opportunity to work with Habitat for Humanity in India and Jordan.

She operates a 1000 acre farm north of Vegreville with her husband, where she spends most of her holidays in the truck or on the combine, and generally just trying not to break any of the very large equipment.
