Meet Our 2011-2012 Campus Corps Team
The 2011-2012 Campus Corps Team is comprised of four unique individuals who enjoy helping people in the Billings community. Together they are growing in their work skills as they learn how to best serve their not-for-profit placements around town.

Patti Hellman
I am originally from Chinook, Montana and my major is in Finance. I am working at the United Way of Yellowstone County as the Youth Volunteer Coordinator; I will be creating and organizing service projects for youth in the Billings community. I am excited about Campus Corps because I didn't start getting involved until a year ago and I absolutely love volunteering. I love the feeling you get after you know you did something that helped someone else out. |

Jennifer Wood
I grew up in the San Francisco area, but have lived in Idaho, Nevada, Utah, and now Montana. I have been here 4 years and feel lucky to live in Billings. I am a grad student at the College of Education here at MSUB. I am excited to be assistant teaching at the Salvation Army in Billings. The Billy Booth Fine Arts Factory offers students a variety of classes including bookmaking/printmaking, drawing, painting, and even a 3-D class where we will be doing some fun projects. I like to get outdoors and hike or putter in the yard with my husband and kids. My other favorite pastime is painting. I have been at it for 23 years and it brings me great joy. Serving through Campus Corps gives me a way to share my love of art and gives me experience as a teacher. |

Lindsay Bell-Martinson
I hold a BA (Montana State University Billings) and MA (Washington State University) in History, and am now working toward teacher licensure for History with an endorsement in Spanish in the M.Ed. program at MSU-B. I have an awesome daughter and a son! My family and I live for Christmastime, a good bowl of ice cream, and NCAA basketball. Big Sky State Games is a perfect fit as it fuses both health and education! I joined Campus Corps because I want to give back to the very community that has given to me and shaped who I am today. |
