MY FAVORITE PART ABOUT WORKING AT PIE

I love growing our company alongside intelligent and passionate colleagues and clients.

A PROFESSIONAL ACCOMPLISHMENT I’M PROUD OF

My graduate degrees in International Relations and Public Relations (from the Maxwell School and Newhouse School, respectively, at Syracuse University) have enabled me to effectively communicate, engage, and deepen relationships with our global audience from our headquarters here in Bozeman, MT.

HOW I LIVE A FULL LIFE

I read as much as I can, and I try to keep a good rotation of fiction, non-fiction, and business books on my shelves. I’m a bit of a motorhead, so Sundays often find me up early to watch MotoGP and F1 races before I get outside to enjoy the mountains. Finally, I sit on the board of a public health nonprofit and put a lot of energy toward improving access to affordable reproductive healthcare in our state.

A BOOK RECOMMENDATION

The Checklist Manifesto by Atul Gawande. It acknowledges the complexity of everything we do, regardless of our industry, and it reminds us that preparedness (and checklists!) can help reduce risk and improve performance, even for experts.
