Austin High School and a proud member of TAMU class of 1975.  After a 36 year career in banking and insurance services, Lynn realized her goal of serving her community after becoming the Executive Director of The Prenatal Clinic in June 2010.  Lynn feels that working in a non-profit organization is more than just a job...it becomes one of the best parts of your life.  While many non-profits experience tragic events, outcomes at The Prenatal Clinic are most often a time of happiness for both the baby’s family and The Prenatal Clinic’s staff.  Being able to help a mom bring a healthy baby into this world is an amazing blessing for us.  

Lynn has 2 sons, Sam and Matt, his wife Ashley and most importantly 6 year old, Truett and 2 year old Cordell.
