I followed that passion into work managing the grounds of a guest ranch in southern Wyoming, and then eventually moving up here to take my position managing Parks and Public Works in Big Sky. However, as a Bozeman resident, I would like to have an impact on the community that I live and spend my free time in without sacrificing my job. * The City of Bozeman strongly values diversity, equity and inclusion (DEI). Describe any efforts you have engaged in to expand your understanding of DEI. The strongest efforts that I make are in my willingness to learn and listen to those with other backgrounds to better grasp where they are coming from.
