Becky and her husband Ted, along with her 3 children, all moved to Waco in 2020. Gabby (middle) was already attending Baylor University, and her younger two, Mateo and Anabella, followed closely behind to become Baylor Bears. Having the experience of being an out-of-state parent with her oldest, she saw the needs of families and felt God give her a heart to serve the college students of Waco. It's been almost 4 years since Waco Mama Bear has begun, and it's been an incredible adventure! Becky brings a lifetime of experience in areas of Customer Service, Emergency Preparedness, First AID and CPR training, Leadership and Crisis Management. She has also dabbled in Holistic Health Coaching, and loves to play in the kitchen!
