Brenda Langdon has joined our Post Rock District Team as the Family Resource Management Extension Agent. We are thrilled to have her join our team of difference makers in North Central Kansas!

Brenda earned her bachelor’s degree in Business Communications from Fort Hays State University, and has most recently been employed as a SNAP-Ed Nutrition Educator in the Post Rock District. Prior to working with K-State Research and Extension, she was a Human Resources and Community Relations Director for KU Health Systems – Pawnee Valley Campus, in Larned, KS.

Brenda will extend the mission of K-State Research and Extension Family and Consumer Sciences with a focus on family resource management. As an Extension Agent, she will provide primary leadership for the development and implementation of research-based educational programming to support successful individuals and families and the systems that serve them in communities.

Brenda looks to develop strong relationships throughout our Post Rock District communities, working to build a legacy described by others as a professional who is easy to talk to, a good listener and full of resources. She’ll strive to inspire those she serves, supporting a positive impact or a better outcome for individuals and families.

Outside of work, Brenda enjoys spending time with family, going for walks, gardening, and keeping the yard looking nice. She also looks forward to attending sports and school activities, as well as being involved in the community happenings. Having moved to the area in the summer of 2019, Brenda acknowledges the friendliness of people. It is easy to recognize people truly care about their communities; there is a lot of pride!

The role of K-State Research and Extension is to encourage the adoption of research-based information to improve the quality of life for Kansans. K-State Research and Extension is an equal opportunity provider of educational programming. Brenda’s primary office is located in Osborne.
