I joined the Young Professionals 2 years ago and it has been instrumental with growing myself professionally and personally. Since joining the Young Professionals, I have been able to network with other young aspiring professionals to help grow my business and also give referrals to my fellow members resulting in professional and business growth for all!

Recent Activities

Joining the Young Professionals was one of the best career moves I have made since moving to the area 3 ½ years ago. I have met so many people, found business partners (and friends), and learned so much about what it means to be a working professional in the Coulee Region. I look forward to each event as a new opportunity to network, learn, and continue to develop my professionalism—and maybe have a little fun while I’m at it!
