Have you ever served on a City or County board? (Yes/No) NO
(If so, where, what board, and how long?)
Please explain your relevant qualifications, interests, and experiences.
I am in charge of an organization steeped in Gallatin Valley’s transportation since 1902. We
are contracted to run the Skyline transit system in Big Sky, we have the school bus operation in
West Yellowstone, a charter bus operation that travels throughout the western United States, and have a private shuttle system from the airport to locations within 150 miles. Here are some of
the committees/boards I have been involved with along with some relevant qualifications:
• Bozeman, Big Sky, and Livingston Transportation Advisory Committees
• Board of the Bozeman Chamber of Commerce.
• I have been involved with the Yellowstone Business Partnership’s transportation plans.
• Bozeman and Big Sky Convention and Visitors Bureau
• Bozeman Triathlon Club: I have done many triathlons, so I am both an avid user of the pedestrian and biking routes available in and around Bozeman.
• I have attended the Complete Streets seminars on two occasions and have a slightly more
than general understanding of what that entails.
• I have a CDL and have driven everything from buses to vans throughout Bozeman and the Gallatin Valley.
