Obershaw has more than 30 years' experience in marketing, tourism and advertising. She spent 15 years with the Beloit Daily News while concurrently volunteering with the Downtown Beloit Association for 14 years, most recently as the Vice Chair of the Executive Board, and chair of the promotions committee. When she worked in Walworth County she volunteered with the Lake Geneva Chamber of Commerce and handled the advertising for The Darien Corn Fest. During her sons

Obershaw began her career in advertising sales locally at the Delavan Enterprise and Walworth County Week newspapers. She is married to her high school sweetheart Ryan. Her son Zachary is pursuing a career in audio engineering in Tennessee. In her spare time she enjoys being a member of the praise and worship team at Rock Valley Chapel in Beloit.
