Joanne believes that moving to Bozeman was one of her best decisions and is very impressed with the community’s deep commitment to the arts. Born in St. Paul, Minnesota, Joanne attended Creighton University in Omaha. After working in Washington, D.C. for a congressman and a lobbying firm, she graduated from Creighton’s law school. Her law career spanned 25 years with a focus on tax-exempt securities. Retirement is Joanne’s favorite life chapter (you may have met her in OLLI classes). Joanne is delighted to share her enthusiasm for MBC and her admiration of the graceful athleticism of the MBC dancers with the community.
