Greater Montana Foundation grant recipient
Greater Montana Foundation
I received a grant from the Greater Montana Foundation to travel to Capitol Hill and shadow Montana’s congressional delegation. It was truly one of the most challenging, yet rewarding experiences of my career. It pushed me to work hard, think creatively and push through several challenges all while making deadline every night.
