The Fam

Sarah's Family

A wife of noble character who can find? She is worth far more than rubies. -- Proverbs 31:10

Todd

High-school sweethearts, Todd & Sarah eloped after college in 1988, and celebrated their 20th anniversary last fall on the campaign trail!

Todd (also known as "First Dude") is a proud native Alaskan (Yup'ik) and oil field production operator on the North Slope. He is an advocate for workforce development and vocational training, and a youth sports coach. Todd is also a four-time champion snowmachine racer in the Iron Dog, a 2,000 mile trek from Wasilla to Nome to Fairbanks.
