Bio
Steven Gerhardt
While working with Michelle on the Citizens for a Better Saginaw County committee to assure we passed the Event Center millage I found her organization, hard work and ability to rally support was pivotal to the success of our effort. She worked diligently to move the ideas and discussions at our meetings into the ground campaign that encouraged the residents of Saginaw County to support our campaign. It my opinion she is the definition of a "Young Professional"
Nancy Werner-Stevenson
Michelle is an amazingly motivated, poised young professional who has become an important asset to the Saginaw County Chamber of Commerce. Her work ethic and dedication combined with her driving energy have allowed her to open new markets for the Chamber as well as bring new life and focus to many existing programs. She constantly pushes herself to learn and is a strong supporter of the community through volunteer services as a reading mentor, a girlscout leader, a Big Sister, and a founding member of the Saginaw County Girls on the Run Program. I would highly recommend Michelle for anything she chooses to do.
