Michelle has been our Business Operations Manager since February of 2023. As a native of Shelley, Michelle grew up loving East Idaho but didn't have a true appreciation for just how lucky she was to live here. As an Army wife, Michelle had the opportunity to travel to areas like Germany, France, Austria, Czech, and Switzerland. Eventually, the Coverts settled back down in Idaho to raise their two daughters, Amanda and Mikayla. Michelle loves pets and has four furry grand-dogs to spoil. Michelle comes to the Chamber with a background in bank management and realty. You may recognize her as a long-time ambassador.
