Please explain your relevant qualifications, interests and experiences: I was the Program Manager at the
Missoula Downtown Association from 2004-2006. During that time I enjoyed how well connected I felt
with the community of Missoula. I moved to Bozeman in 2006 and have settled in and began raising a
family here. With a family comes an even greater desire to be connected to your community and be a
part of what it has to offer. I feel that my past experience with a downtown association and business
networking skills developed through my current role at Oracle will be a great asset to the Bozeman TIF
group. I am a firm believer in the downtown being the heart and soul of a community and would like to
help in any way to keep ours on track with the proposed plan. During my time at the MDA we were just
getting approval for a BID in the downtown area established. I am familiar with the processes and
procedures of a Board of Directors and would like to take a seat on yours!
