Q: How long have you been with your company?
A: Since September 2015.
Q: How long have you been a Chamber Ambassador?
A: I became an ambassador in January 2021.
Q: What do you like about being an ambassador?
A: We are a hard-working group of people whose mission is to help support chamber members. I really enjoy learning about our local businesses and helping them with events, membership questions, and anything else they need. I absolutely love seeing businesses succeed in our area and look forward to seeing the growth in Saginaw.
Q: Tell us a little about yourself.
A: I grew up in St. Charles and graduated from Saginaw Valley State University with a degree in Chemistry and Business. Then I continued my education at Northwood University and obtained my Masters in Business. I started working out at The Dow Chemical Company right out of high school, then decided to pursue a career in chemistry. I left the field seven years ago when the opportunity came up to join my brother, Nolan, co-run our family office furniture business, along side our parents. Their plans are to retire and for us to continue running the operation. I now live in Hemlock with my husband Michael and our two sons Aaron (3) and Eli (10 months).
Q: What was your first job?
A:. My first job was right out of high school at The Dow Chemical Company as an analytical co-op in the Toxicology lab within Michigan Operations in Midland.
Q: What worries keep you up at night?
A: I worry about failing and all of the tasks that I have to do in a week. I believe it is what drives me to keep going and to push myself harder.
Q: What is your greatest achievement?
A: Since joining the family business, we have been able to triple our clientele the last 6 years. I knew it was going to be a hard task, but it has been very rewarding to see the amount of growth that we have had. I’m excited to see the business continue to grow and where it will go in the future.
Q: What is your most prized possession?
A: My most prized possession has to be my family.
Q: What is something unique in your office?
A: That we bring our dogs to work with us. We love having them there, and they like all the attention they get from our employees. I also brought my son Aaron to work with me until he was one, and my son Eli currently comes to work a few days a week.
Q: What is your favorite Michigan travel location?
A: I really enjoy the Traverse City area as well as the Sleeping Bear Dunes. The views are amazing.
Q: What do you like to do in your spare time?
A: I enjoy going to our family vacation home. We’ve had it in our family the last 30 years, and plan to keep going.
