Communications Chair
Stephanie Rottinghaus
Marketing Specialist at Advanced Heat Treat Corp.

Why I'm cool: Since I'm a mom, the word "cool" is never used to describe me... but I do consider myself lucky because I've found my home away from home. I am very thankful to be doing something I love every day with fun people that entertain some of my "out there" ideas.
The TV show/movie/book I think everyone should love as much as I do: Notting Hill. Sappy, yes. But it's a classic that everyone should see at least once. |
