What does the committee feel he/she contributes to YPN?   (Statement by Team Co-leads)

“Jennifer is one of our newer members and has begun to make an impact straight from the get-go. Since joining the network, she has attended a majority of the Social Team meetings and events and was even the first person to step up to be on the All Hands event planning committee. Jennifer also volunteered to be the Social Team’s marketing liaison, in which she will be preparing graphics and Facebook events for our upcoming events, and helping us in other ways as well. We are so appreciative of her willingness to help out and look forward to working with her.”

Why do you feel it is important to be part of the network?  YP introduces you to so many people! I have met more people in the community since being a member than I have in the three years I have lived in Bismarck. I originally joined to get some marketing experience to help me with my new job and after six months in the network, I am already involved with marketing for the Social Team, which is a great opportunity.

How do you spend your free time?   My husband and I love to be outside, preferably with friends or our terribly-behaved Pomeranian, Simba. We try to spend our weekends camping, kayaking, hiking, or exploring local and state parks. I am also attempting to garden, but I would have to let you know how that goes if I can ever convince something to grow.

Are you involved in other organizations in the community?  I sing in the Bismarck Mandan Civic Chorus and I volunteer whenever I can at the Central Dakota Humane Society. Through my work I am involved with the North Dakota Recreation and Parks Association, North Dakota Association of Nonprofit Organizations, the Economic Development Association of North Dakota, and a few other fantastic organizations!
