Reagan Pogue

Hello! My name is Reagan Pogue. I was born and raised in Southern California and moved to Idaho to pursue my university studies. I eventually met and married my husband here and have made southeast Idaho our home. I graduated from Brigham Young University-Idaho with a bachelor's degree in secondary education with an emphasis in English. For just over three years I worked for a program on campus called the Presentation Practice Center where I was not only a certified public speaking specialist, but acting student director. I believe wholeheartedly in the value of education at each and every level and I am so excited to be on this journey with you!
