A self-proclaimed “nerd,” she loves to learn new things and is inspired by continual personal development. Ashli became passionate about healthcare when she experienced a hemorrhage and learned firsthand the limitations of the current healthcare system in our rural location. She is excited to utilize her experience and passion for community in building the hospital and continuing to progress healthcare in Sublette County to ensure that residents have access to excellent healthcare services for decades to come.

Kenda Tanner, Treasurer
Kenda Tanner graduated from the University of Oklahoma with a bachelor’s degree in accounting. Starting her career with Mobil Oil she ended up being assigned to the department that accounted for natural gas in the Rocky Mountain region. This endeavor led her to the beautiful state of Wyoming where she met her husband, Bill, and decided to settle in Big Piney. Following a 17-year career as an insurance agent for Farm Bureau Financial Services she eventually decided to retire in order be more available to her two very active children, Jak and Grace, and also have time to volunteer and give back to the community that has treated her so well. While she has sat on many boards, it is the time she has spent sitting on the board of the Sublette Center that she deems most valuable. Living in a small rural community allows one to see the real importance of being able to provide necessary services to our aging family and friends without having to travel 100 miles or more. She also feels strongly that the need to successfully provide all healthcare services is crucial when living in rural Wyoming which is why she worked to promote the creation of a Hospital District and also build a Critical Access Hospital with a new Long Term Skilled Nursing facility. She believes the citizens of Sublette County deserve a healthcare system that supports individuals and families, including the elderly, in achieving their best health and overall quality of life.

Kelly Telfer
Kelly Telfer has been a registered nurse for 17 years, with the majority of her career spent working in rural critical access hospitals and small community hospitals. Throughout her nursing career, she has gained experience in a variety of healthcare settings, including Medical-Surgical, Labor and Delivery, Emergency Department, and Inpatient Rehabilitation. She has also operated her own private practice as an International Board-Certified Lactation Consultant (IBCLC), providing specialized lactation and breastfeeding support to families in the community.
Kelly moved to Bend, Oregon, at the age of 13, where she later met her husband, David, while attending Central Oregon Community College in 2004. David was pursuing a degree in Fire Science and Emergency Medical Services (EMS). After completing his degree, he accepted a position with Kalispell Fire and Rescue, while Kelly completed her nursing prerequisites. She was subsequently accepted to Montana State University at the Kalispell Branch Campus, where she transferred and completed her Bachelor of Science in Nursing (BSN). Kelly and David were married in 2008 and have three children.
In 2022, Kelly and her family moved from Central Oregon to Pinedale, Wyoming, seeking a smaller community and a slower pace of life in which to raise their children. Their children absolutely love Pinedale and are thriving in the community. In her spare time, Kelly enjoys following her children around the state as they participate in girls' high school swimming, USA Swimming, club soccer, and ice skating.
Kelly believes her 17 years of nursing experience, particularly in rural healthcare settings, provide a valuable perspective as a member of the Sublette County Hospital District Board. Having worked in small hospitals, she understands both the unique challenges and the tremendous importance of accessible, sustainable healthcare in rural communities. As Sublette County continues to launch and stabilize its newly opened hospital while experiencing continued growth and change, she hopes to contribute practical healthcare experience, a patient-centered perspective, and a commitment to the long-term success of the local healthcare system.
When not at work, Kelly enjoys backpacking in the magical Wind River Range, hiking, camping, boating, and skiing—in short, taking advantage of all that Sublette County and Wyoming have to offer! She looks forward to serving her community in this new role on the Sublette County Hospital District Board.
