Yvonne Clark is a powerhouse in both the engineering world and her community. With an impressive career in the energy sector, she specializes in project development and construction—bringing critical infrastructure to life and helping power homes and businesses across America. Yvonne holds a Master of Science in Civil Engineering from the University of Hawaii and a Bachelor of Science in Industrial Engineering from the University of Oklahoma. A proud advocate for STEM education and mentorship, Yvonne is passionate about inspiring the next generation—especially young girls—to pursue careers in engineering and the sciences. Her technical expertise, combined with a heart for service, makes her a compelling leader and role model in both professional and public spaces. As Mrs. Oklahoma American, Yvonne represents strength, grace, and purpose. She is a devoted wife to Goose Clark, a former golf professional, and the proud mother of two daughters, ages 4 and 6. Yvonne’s hobbies reflect her vibrant personality. She’s an avid runner who has completed iconic races such as the Nike Women’s Half Marathon in San Francisco and the Lululemon SeaWheeze in Vancouver. When she’s not running, she’s often in the garden, perfecting her flower beds, or exploring her Filipino heritage through travel, cuisine, and cultural traditions. Her creative pursuits are just as diverse—Yvonne has been playing piano since age six, has modeled for major publications (including a national campaign for Toyota), and even made an appearance on the hit television show LOST. At age 22, Yvonne survived a life-altering cliff diving accident that left her with a broken C5 vertebra. Her recovery reshaped her perspective, deepening her faith and commitment to living life with purpose. Today, she embraces each day with gratitude, giving God all the glory.
