* Please describe your professional and personal experiences, interest, and qualifications that make you a good fit for this board.
I am a Bozeman native and retired banker with a B.S. and M.P.A. from MSU. In my banking career ethics, honesty and integrity were paramount for personal and company
reputation. I have taken the annual Bozeman ethics training since it was introduced (20 years ago?). In addition, I am a SCORE mentor (volunteer subsidiary of the Small
Business Administration) and take annual S.B.A. ethics training course to remain a certified small business counselor.
* The City of Bozeman strongly values diversity, equity and inclusion (DEI). Describe any efforts you have engaged in to expand your understanding of
DEI.
As a SCORE counselor, we are required to complete an SBA DEI training module. The young people we typically advise come from widely varied ethnic, gender, marital,
religions, and nationalities. I believe I have a firm understanding of DEI.
