YES.

Tamara Kohnen was born and raised in Hitchcock, South Dakota. Growing up on a farm/ranch Tamara learned the value of hard work. She's an accomplished athlete who loves volleyball, basketball, track, and softball. She participated in FCCLA on a state winning parliamentary procedure team. Her need to continually learn and her love of adventure makes her a perfect fit for the YES team. Coming from a family of five siblings, three brothers and one sister, she has learned great life lessons (and survival skills!) through them. Tamara is part of a family-run Hunting lodge, and enjoys hunting, fishing, and camping. She has lived in Bristol South Dakota for the past 4 years with her Fiancé Patrick and their son Jake. Tamara graduated from Northern State University with her Bachelors Degree in Biology and has interned at South Dakota Game, Fish, and Parks. She has vast knowledge of nature and wildlife and an absolute love of the outdoors. Family comes first with Tamara, and she spends all her free time with her Fiancé, son, and large extended family.
