Bridgette is a recent graduate of Michigan State University’s James Madison College and is a public affairs manager at Martin Waymire, a public relations agency in downtown Lansing. Outside of working with clients in the public policy space who are making Michigan a better place, one of her biggest passions is live music.

Growing up in the music industry, Bridgette attended music festivals and concerts before she could walk. During the pandemic, while experiencing the direct effects of a shuttered industry, her family started a small business with an effort to raise money to support independent artists and venues, and once shows returned, hosted concerts for friends in their backyard.

Bridgette joined the Share The Music Foundation board in 2023 and manages all things marketing and social media, helping share the mission of bringing live music to the Lansing area and supporting charitable organizations in the community.
