About
Hi, I’m Bobbie.
I’ve spent more than a decade working in Main Street and downtown revitalization, helping communities build programs, create events, develop partnerships, and bring projects from ideas to reality.
My experience spans Missouri and California, with hands-on work in downtown programming, business and stakeholder engagement, placemaking, public art, grants, communications, and community events.
I believe good downtown work is both strategic and practical. It takes a clear direction, strong relationships, and people who are willing to roll up their sleeves and get the work done.
That’s the kind of work I enjoy—and the kind of work I bring to every project.
