* Please describe your professional and personal experiences, interest, and qualifications that make you a good fit for this board.
I am a fourth-generation Montanan (now raising a fifth gen here!) and a graduate of Montana State University (Go Bobcats!). I have spent the bulk of my career in
entertainment and am fortunate to have relocated back to Bozeman last Summer. Bozeman today is not the Bozeman of my college days. Many positive and many negative
changes have happened in recent years and I have a vested interest in this community and State. I would love to have a more active role in this beautiful town.
* The City of Bozeman strongly values diversity, equity and inclusion (DEI). Describe any efforts you have engaged in to expand your understanding of
DEI.
Growing up in Billings I was surrounded by diversity. My mother was a teacher in low-poverty schools and my father was a prosecuting attorney. From a young age they
opened my eyes to the issues that can affect people - based on socio economic disparity or other factors - and stressed the importance of helping others if you are
fortunate enough to afford to volunteer time or resources. Not only do I try to engage in my community but I am now including my daughters in my efforts.

Is there any other information that you feel we need to know?
Though I have not served on a City Board, I have served on many boards and volunteer. I was on the Board for MCFTA in Midland, Michigan for 5 years and volunteered at
the local shelter as well as for various local events. Currently, I work with Haven here in Bozeman, am team Manager for my daughter's hockey team, and am very involved
in their sports and academics. I also LOVE being back in Bozeman and love hiking, yoga, and DJ'ing youth hockey games.
