After close to 3 decades, Jeanne Moller pours herself into her last Wine & Food Festival
Jeanne Moller has a gift. She can walk into a room and innately understand what people need before they know they need it. She has a knack for dodging pitfalls before they happen. After 28 years as the senior development officer at the Montana State University Billings Foundation, the woman who has anticipated the wants and expectations of volunteers and guests of the Wine and Food Festival is retiring.
The festival that has been headed up by Moller for all but one year of its existence has become the premier wine and culinary event in Montana. It has also, with the help of Moller, helped raise millions of dollars in scholarships for MSUB students.
