The BIA is excited to welcome two new interns to the team — Jenna Kannegiesser in marketing & sales and Reagan Wendel in communications!
Jenna is from Hancock, Minnesota, and is currently a full-time student at Minnesota State University Moorhead, pursuing a degree in business administration with an emphasis in marketing. She is on track to graduate in the spring of 2026. Jenna is eager to dive into the ins and outs of event planning and looks forward to building on her marketing strategy skills during her time with the BIA. She enjoys working hands-on and collaborating with others to make an impact.
Outside of work, Jenna expresses her creativity through writing, journaling and scrapbooking. She also enjoys reading, working out and thrifting.
Reagan is from a farm just outside of Eagle Bend, Minnesota, and is currently a full-time student at North Dakota State University. She is studying horticulture with minors in crop and weed science and agricultural communication.
Reagan loves spending time with her family and friends. Whether it's going for a walk, swimming or lending a hand on her family farm, she is happiest when she is outdoors. Reagan's biggest passion is traveling, she takes any chance she can to explore new places, intending to visit all 50 states.
Reagan is excited for the opportunity to work with the BIA, meet new people and grow in her communication skills. She's looking forward to exploring her creativity and contributing to the team.
We are thrilled to have both Jenna and Reagan on board and can't wait to see the ideas, energy and fresh perspectives they bring to the BIA!
