Brenda Bourn is a native Idahoan who believes now’s the time to step into leadership for our District. Brenda was adopted into the family of Wayne and Sharon Steinocker and grew up in Idaho’s Magic Valley. She met her husband, Randy, while going to school at Lewis-Clark State College in Lewiston, and relocated to the Treasure Valley after they met. The two were married in 1993. Shortly after getting married, Brenda returned to Northern Idaho to complete her education at the University of Idaho in Moscow. Upon graduation in 1998, Brenda and her husband moved to New Mexico where she began her career in the medical field as a Registered Dietician. 

After 15 years in the Southwest, Brenda and Randy returned to Idaho in 2013 to make their home in the Treasure Valley. As she returned to Idaho, Brenda continued her work with the medical community as a diabetic educator working with adults and children and their families as they navigate the trials of living with diabetes. Her commitment to help and support people with quality health care has been a big part of her life.

Brenda’s husband Randy is a pastor on staff with Eagle Christian Church, and they have one daughter who is attending college. The Bourn family is proud to call Idaho home, and love the diversity and opportunities that Idaho and the United States of America have provided for them. Brenda is committed to ensuring that those opportunities continue to be a part of the lives of citizens for years to come. 

As Brenda enters into politics, she will be led by her commitment to hard work, her commitment to high ethical standards, and her desire to do what is right.
