Cris Benson (left) sponsored by President Jan Corn (right) was brought into our Rotary family at our December 19, noon meeting. Cris grew up in Walla Walla, driving pea combines and wheat trucks to fund a Bachelor’s in Industrial and Organizational Psychology from Western Washington University. She applied her skills at Boeing for many years until an epiphany during the Nisqually earthquake directed her to contribute directly to making things better for people. She founded and ran a WBE certified Human Resources consulting firm in Seattle for 10 years.

Cris now serves as Operations Manager for Fort Walla Walla Museum and lives near the middle school she attended years ago. Welcome to our Rotary family Cris!
