Ellen Wolferman

I’ve been in the service industry and coaching for the past several years, spending my time as a ski instructor and high school volleyball coach. When I wasn’t on the mountain or in the gym, I was camp operations manager at Alaska King Salmon Adventures, a fishing lodge on the Nushagak River.

I live by the motto of “work hard, play hard” and it reflects in all aspects of my life. I find the most joy in making connections and helping others, which compelled me to find a career where I can do just that. I am able to build lasting relationships and friendships within my service to my customers and community. Being an insurance agent gives me the opportunity to assist others in relieving the stress that comes from the uncertainty of life and everyday risks.

I am a member of the Northwest Marine Trade Association as well as Wild Montana, an organization dedicated to keeping Montana's land and water access public and wild. I am active in PSIA (Professional Ski Instructors of America), but since joining Leavitt Group, professional skiing has become skiing for enjoyment.

I earned my bachelor’s degree from the University of Montana Western in business administration, with an emphasis in social media marketing and web design. While attending UMW, as well as Spokane Falls Community College and Life University in Marietta, Georgia, I received two associate degrees: one in sports business and another in management and marketing.
