Q:  How long have you been with Wildfire?
A:  I started at Wildfire in September 2014.

Q:  How long have you been a Chamber Ambassador?
A:  I joined the group in December 2018.

Q:  What do you like about being an ambassador? 
A:  I enjoy working as part of a team to promote the chamber and business community in Saginaw County. 

Q:  Tell us a little about yourself.  
A:  My father was a Michigan State Police officer so we moved around the State in my childhood before settling in Bay City.  I attended Bay City Western, then CMU, and later received my MBA from Davenport University.  I am the oldest of three kids, and I have three children and two grand kids. I have lived in Frankenmuth since 1996, and some of my favorite things are Hunting, Golfing, playing Euchre and Texas Hold ‘em, and pizza.

Q:  What was your first job? 
A:  Working in the kitchen for Big Don at Krzysiak’s House Restaurant in Bay City.

Q:  What worries keep you up at night? 
A:  I try not to stress about too much.  

Q:  What is your most prized possession? 
A:  An 1882 Silver Dollar and Pocket Watch given to me by my Grandpa Harken. 

Q:  What is something unique in your office?
A:  I just looked around and I don’t see anything too unique, so I will say it’s me. 

Q:  What is your favorite Michigan travel location? 
A:   Ludington State Park, Little Caesars’ Arena and Deer Camp.
