Colby was born and raised in Millersville, MO. She attended Jackson High School and graduated with honors from Southeast Missouri State University in 2013 with an Agribusiness degree. In 2016, Colby married Blake Friese and they have two children: Branch and River.

It won’t take long for you to figure out upon meeting Colby, that she loves everything about farm life, especially horses. Besides being full time as the Ministry Assistant at Cowboy Church, she spends much of her time riding horses, barrel racing and being outside on the farm. 

Colby has grown up in a Christian home and at the age of six knew she was a sinner in need of a Savior and is honored to have the opportunity she has here at the Cowboy Church to share the Good News with people she loves and cares about, those of the western way of life.
