I was born and raised in Montana. For the last 13 years I have called the Billings area home. I graduated from Montana State University-Billings with a degree in Health Promotion, and upon graduation worked for the American Cancer Society and with MSU-Billings. I came to the Chamber nearly one year ago.

My husband, Rich, teaches math at the College of Technology. We have 2 dogs, 1 cat and 1 fish, making our house a zoo -- and that is how we like it. I have 3 brothers and 1 sister and love to spend time with my 2 nieces although I don't get to do it nearly as much as I would like to.

When I am not working I love to hike and camp, play softball and volleyball, shop and watch movies like The Great Outdoors, Napoleon Dynamite and That Thing you Do.

In my short time at the Chamber I have come to truly love not just my job, but also the organization. I can wholeheartedly say that we are an organization dedicated to helping, serving and promoting businesses in and around Billings.

There are so many things that make our community unique and I cannot think of a better place to live and someday raise a family.
