Board Spotlight | Carla Gatzke, Board President
12 May 2021
Board Spotlight
We are launching a new series in which we will introduce you to each of our 15 individual board members and let them share about economic development and the impact it has to the Brookings County area.
To kick things off, let’s say “Hello!” to Carla Gatzke who serves as President of our BEDC Board. When I sat down with Carla we discussed why she enjoys serving on the board, why economic development is important, and what she enjoys about living in Brookings. She is the VP of Human Resources at Daktronics and nearly a life-long member of the Brookings community.
Thank you, Carla, for serving in this role and for investing in the future of Brookings in this leadership position!
Connect with Carla on LinkedIn.
