David Hendengren


Pictured: David Hedengren, Margaret Hedengren (wife, not sister, you're gross), Olin Hedengren (baby), and Reginald (Sea Lion)
After 4 awesome years at Provo High, Dave spent 2 years in Nicaragua as an itinerant preacher for the LDS church and later received a degree in Economics from BYU. Even more impressively he met and married the beautiful and brilliant Margaret Campbell, a graduate of Timpview High School. He had high hopes that their marriage would end the long standing feud between PHS and THS. He was right.

However, Dave and Margaret knew that their family wasn't complete. After much soul searching and doctor consultation they decided to catch, and train a Sea Lion. In 2009 the Hedengrens not only found Reginald, they exceeded even their own lofty expectation by also creating the best boy west of the Mississippi river (all the way west, including Japan).
Along the way Dave and Margaret spent three years working for the same Economic consulting firm in DC (yes, they even shared an office, and yes it was adorable). Eventually they both left the firm in order to spend more time pursuing wild Sea Lions (and so Dave could start a PhD program in Economics at George Mason University).

As the wife of an Army officer I move pretty often and I think dragging our 200 lb Mastiff from town to town is tough. Can't imagine what it's like haulin' Reginald around DC. So glad to hear you're doing well Dave! Good luck at George Mason.
