Hello! My name is Hunter Ostrem, and I am the WIC Technician in Albany County, Wyoming. If you haven’t seen my face, you’ve certainly heard my voice and seen my WIC recipes, as I do a lot of our social media, including our series! I have been with WIC for a year now, and I can hardly believe how quickly it has gone, but you know the saying, “time flies when you’re having fun.” Every day at WIC is a new adventure, and I am incredibly grateful for our amazing team and the opportunity to help the participants we serve every day.
I grew up in Casper, but moved to Laramie to pursue a degree in political science. After I graduated with my Bachelor’s, I was so in love with Laramie that I decided to stay. I spent several years working in the auto repair industry before finding my place at WIC. I love Wyoming, and Laramie in particular, for our culture of caring for our neighbors and our proximity to nature.
In August of 2025, I married the love of my life, Kayla. Our little family currently consists of the two of us and our two cats, Acorn and Gnocchi. Outside of work, you can find me having dinners and D&D game nights with friends, going camping, volunteering at my church, or curling up with my wife and our cats and playing a video game or a board game. A fun fact that most people don’t know about me is that I unironically love sea shanties, and I often listen to them while I clean!
It is a pleasure to meet you, and even more of a pleasure to serve the great people of Wyoming.
