Krissa WrigleyBoard MemberDr. Krissa Wrigley is a passionate believer in the idea of making and creating jobs and has found true joy in educating people about the facets of business development and ownership. Dr. Wrigley has spent the better part of twelve years focused on economic development, everything from business startup and entrepreneurship, to business retention to business attraction. She has crafted policies, gathered and analyzed best practice information, designed impact studies and marketing pieces to tell stories, collaborated with industry, colleges and universities and government agencies – all in attempts to increase the economic opportunity for the residents of Oregon and Idaho. Much of this effort was focused in the public sector, with some time in the private sector and non profit worlds |

Kelsey J. NunezBoard MemberKelsey is an attorney at the Boise law firm, Givens Pursley, where her practice emphasizes renewable energy, green building, and sustainability through land use, energy, and environmental and natural resources transactions and litigation. Overall, she aims to help those that seek to lead sustainable livelihoods succeed by advising in legal, business, and policy issues. Kelsey enjoys spending time in the great outdoors, visiting friends and family, cooking, eating, traveling, and relaxing. Her gardening and hula-hooping skills could use improvement, but aren’t we all works in progress? |

Danielle HurdBoard MemberDanielle has called Boise home for the past thirteen years and has seen a lot of exciting changes and positive growth in that time. She is hopeful that through the efforts of SCC and its programs, the local movement in Idaho will be an assumption rather than an exception to the broadest possible audience. By day, Danielle is the Regional Director of Client Relations at CTA Architects Engineers where she actively promotes green building principals, including the integrated project delivery method. Danielle's future plans include continuing to advocate for energy efficient design through community involvement and education, while maintaining an intense interest in green architecture as an essential component of a sustainable environment. |
