Meet the Missouri Life Ambassadors!
Missouri Life has a crew of enthusiastic volunteers who share story ideas with us, let us know about events, and deliver insider knowledge on different topics that only a local could provide. Meet Adair County’s ambassador.
Missouri Life’s ambassador program is all volunteer. In addition to sharing story ideas and events with us for our calendar, they also help us spread the word about their own community and the state they love. They help us with regional information that only a local could provide. They are our eyes and ears in our big state!
Danielle Bopp
Danielle Bopp graduated from Truman State University with a degree in creative writing, and she has shared her writing talents with Missouri Life as a contributor for more than five years. (This is a bit unusual. We only have a handful of ambassador writers.) A travel agency writer before taking her current job at State Farm, this mother of two daughters loves learning about Missouri’s hidden gems. In her free time, Danielle enjoys writing and taking photos.
If you’d like to feed Danielle ideas that she could relay to us, email her at [email protected].
