Jenna Eliel, Marketing Master

What is your superpower?

Besides my ability to wield words for marketing purposes, I would say one baffling superpower is somehow managing to put my shirt on both inside out and backwards some mornings. As a full-grown adult, it’s quite impressive, and I’ll get through half the day and realize I’ve made a terrible mistake. Because of this, my true superpower is laughing at myself and not taking life too seriously. I get along with a wide range of personalities because I find people fascinating, complicated, and hilarious.

What made you decide to pursue your current position with Montana Good Life?

I was drawn to the friendly vibe of Montana Good Life Properties. It really did strike me as something different than you find from most offices, especially in a professional field that can be stressful and rigid. I am a mellow creative, and I want an environment that is collaborative and fun.

What's your background and how does that help real estate clients?

I have spent most of my life in Montana, so I know the area. I have also seen Bozeman grow and love the booming art scene and culinary choices that expand beyond “Subway”. As a native Montanan, I can give an authentic voice to describe the life and unique culture we have in our mountain state. It really is a special place. 

What is an unusual life experience or hobby you have that people would be surprised to hear?  

I am a standup comedian. People who don’t know me well, even among some extended family, are surprised to discover this. They picture me as a more quiet and reserved personality (which, if you ask the people that do know me well, is not at all how they would describe me). One of the byproducts of being introverted, I suppose (which a lot of stand-up comics are), is the misconception that you would never do anything public and...well...goofy.
