Mund celebrates 25 years at the HBA

Twenty-five years ago Krista Mund was hired at the HBA of F-M as the communications coordinator. Last week her fellow staff surprised her with a video recap of her career and gift at the June board of directors meeting.

Originally from Beach, ND, Mund graduated high school and attended North Dakota State University where she graduated in 1995 with a degree in mass communication. 

Mund has always excelled at and enjoyed writing. She was originally hired to put together the membership directory, member newsletter and member meeting materials. Although her position has changed a lot since 1998, she continues to be a valuable asset in communicating on behalf of the industry.

CEO Bryce Johnson says, "The amount of professionalism and dedication Krista brings to her position cannot be understated. Her eagle-eye editing skills and leadership has brought the HBA to produce high-quality content and impressive results."

Mund is a passionate advocate for the industry. In her position at the HBA, it’s not just a job for her, she is passionate about the homebuilding industry and the impact the Association has on homeownership.

In 2016 the HBA Executive Committee re-assessed roles as the Association has become more of an active community asset. As Johnson was spending more time engaged in industry meetings and having an active role in the Fargo-Moorhead metro, Mund was promoted to executive vice president to take on additional operational responsibilities in addition to her current communication role.

The entire HBA staff agrees that Mund is calm and level-headed when it comes to dealing with stressful situations and complex issues. Her clear communication style and direction makes it easy to get work done more efficiently.

Johnson says, "On behalf of the HBA staff, board of directors and entire membership, thank you Krista for your 25 years of dedication and hard work for the Association!"
