This Montana girl is so excited to make a life in Cheyenne and start a new adventure. My first taste of the city was in 2001, as the current Miss Rodeo Montana. Between pancake tossing and autograph signing it was easy to fall in love with Wyoming’s Capitol. Rich with cowboy culture, history, and magic who knew I’d be so lucky to call this place my new home.  Here at the Chamber, I truly love my job, and the organization. With a background in recruiting, finance, and insurance, I can wholeheartedly say it is great to be a part of an organization that is dedicated to helping, serving, and promoting businesses in and around Cheyenne. I am so blessed to be a part of a team that is passionate about what they do.

In 2003 I graduated from Montana State University-Billings with a B.S. in Public Relations. I love rodeo and have been a member of the NHSRA, NIRA, and WPRA. I have a wonderful husband who has turned my passion from barrel racing to team roping. We love to rope, travel, ski, and spend time with friends and family.  I am also a new member of the Cheyenne Kiwanis Club. Thank you for the warm welcome…

…on your mark, get set, Go!
