DURD - current
* Please describe your professional and personal experiences, interest, and qualifications that make you a good fit for this board.
I currently sit on this board and believe that I bring an important expertise to the group as I work with both local businesses, developers, architects and property owners in
the downtown core. I understand the importance of downtown continuing to sustain as the heart of this community and work thoughtfully toward this goal. I have also
owned multiple businesses downtown and understand this perspective.
* The City of Bozeman strongly values diversity, equity and inclusion (DEI). Describe any efforts you have engaged in to expand your understanding of
DEI.
Along with the DURD, I currently sit on the Bozeman Library Foundation and Prospera boards. I have also sat on the BridgerCare board and the Women's Business Center
board. These are comprised by a diverse group of people both in board and in mission and outreach. Additionally, I am engaged in understanding local issues concerning
sustainability, housing, family issues, education and our business community which puts me in touch with an extremely diverse group of community members.

Yes
How did you hear about this board or vacancy?
I am a current board member
Is there any other information that you feel we need to know?
I would be glad to serve another term. It is challenging to fully understand an organization as a temporary board member and I feel that our current board is very motivated
to be proactive and dig into important issues for the downtown. I think my knowledge would add to that value in a second term.
