2026 Ambassador of the Year

AJ is a FSR III with First Interstate Bank, where she has been a valued team member for just over three years. With nearly nine years of experience in the banking industry, AJ has held a variety of roles that have helped build a strong foundation in financial services, customer care, and relationship management. Her experience, combined with an reliable demeanor, makes AJ a trusted resource for both customers and colleagues.

Originally form Lowman, Idaho, AJ relocated to Emmett within the last four years to be closer to family and quickly developed a strong connection to the community. Over the past three years, AJ has been involved with the Gem County Chamber of Commerce, where she enjoys supporting the Chamber’s mission through hands-on involvement. Volunteering at the Emmett Cherry Festival and other Chamber events has been a particularly rewarding experience. Volunteering allowed AJ to connect with local businesses, residents, and visitors while helping showcase the community. AJ appreciates how the Ambassador Program creates opportunities to give back, build meaningful relationships, and stay engaged with the community. Outside of work and volunteer commitments, AJ enjoys side-by-side riding with friends and family, embracing the outdoor lifestyle that makes Idaho such a special place to live. Whether at the bank, at a Chamber event, or out on the trials, AJ is passionate about building connections and contributing positively to the place she proudly calls home.
