I believe I would be a great fit as the Membership Director for the Heart because I am actively involved with many local businesses already through my current board position with the Heart and through my role as the co-owner/Director of Relationship Development for the Jeff Probst Group. This role would allow me to further combine my goals with the Heart and my own business and would be a win/win for all. I am already out and about meeting new community members and business owners all the time, introducing them to what the Heart has to offer, and why they should be a part of it. I believe strongly that local businesses are the backbone of our economy and that we need to support them in whatever ways we can. I feel that I am friendly and inclusive and would do a great job helping new members get connected and feel welcome. I also would like to further advance our opportunities and offerings for service based businesses within the Heart.

I have been a part of the HOC for the past 2 years and have been actively involved since I joined, attending and volunteering at almost all of the event. I was voted onto the board as the Director of Volunteers within 6 months of getting involved and have loved getting to know and work with many local businesses/Heart members. I believe strongly in the Hearts motto to shop, eat, drink, invest, and support local.
I am also on the executive board for Hannah's Treasure Chest, a local non-profit that support under-privileged children and families in our community. My team and I have also been repeat volunteers and supporters of other non-profits such as: Habitat for Humanity, BOGG Ministries, Shoes for the Shoeless and Clothes that Work.
