Board of Directors
About Our Board
Simulation in Motion Montana (SIM-MT) is led by a volunteer Board of Directors who provide strategic guidance, oversight, and vision for our mission.
Board members come from diverse fields—healthcare, education, business, and public service—bringing valuable insight to our work across rural Montana.
Each member also contributes financially, reflecting their strong belief in SIM-MT’s impact. We’re proud to be backed by such dedicated and experienced leadership.
