Brenda is unapologetically obsessed with making modern motherhood work for her. She is a local insurance broker, the wife of a first responder, and a clean freak with a messy closet. As a contributor, Brenda's goal is to bond with local moms over lighthearted topics like home organization and summer camps, to the more serious topics like navigating children's food allergies and growing up around substance abuse. She is married to her high school sweetheart, David. Together they have three children, Kristen, Kathryn, and Zachary. Brenda lives on the west side of El Paso just down the street from her in-laws, making free babysitting and emergency paper towel rolls easily accessible.
