Emerging Prairie is excited to welcome Isabelle to the team! Belle joins us as the Project Coordinator Intern for Grand Farm, where she will assist with setting up and conducting projects on the physical Grand Farm site and supports the management of Grand Farm’s project portfolio.
Isabelle grew up in Fargo, ND but spent summers and holidays visiting her dad in Honolulu, HI. Her love for warm weather and family connection led her to attend the University of Hawaii where she began pursuing a degree in Business Management. However, her roots brought her back to North Dakota where she is finishing her degree in UND’s online business program. In her free time, Isabelle enjoys reading, lifting weights, and playing any outdoor sports/games with friends and family.
