How We Are Connecting People & Creating Community One Story At A Time:

Learn Who Is Connecting People & Creating Community One Story At A Time:

Who created this?

Creator/Founder of MyFESTUS.com

I have spent my whole life working in small businesses and being a new kid on the block. 

I started working for my father’s home-remodeling company in Platteville, Wisconsin when I was in 5th grade. Since then, I lived all in different places in Wisconsin and Minnesota, always working in some aspect of small business operations and communications. 

Wanting to settle down and grow roots in Festus, Missouri, I have made it my mission to help OurFESTUS community by sharing stories that shine the light on people and places to explore. I am SOO incredibly proud and honored to do my part to connect people and create community, one story at a time.

By spreading positive and optimistic energy, I hope to inspire authenticity, inviting everyone to feel they belong here, at home, within their own mind, body, and soul.

I believe in the power and leadership of our brave, visionary entrepreneurs who are setting the tone for the culture and community we are cultivating around here.

Technical Talent behind MyFESTUS.com

Ryan also started working within our father’s home-remodeling business at a young age. His artistic expression of drawing and design paired well with his obsession with technology to creatively help small businesses with websites, graphic design, and marketing since he was a teenager. His impressive talents allow businesses to build their authentic brand, making them stand out. His attention to detail is pixel-perfect, always enhancing visibility and traffic. 

✨Sara and Ryan work hand-in-hand to support OurFESTUS-area community. ✨

How is the Support OurFESTUS Resource Guide different than the current stories that live on MyFESTUS.com?

All of the current stories living within the MyFESTUS.com website were written from the lens and perspective of Sara, the Creator of MyFESTUS.com. While she is awesome (the one writing this now!)…and has earned the trust and respect within our community, she is only one person. 

There is a need for an increased quantity of spotlight stories with varied perspectives. 

By opening up the Support OurFESTUS Resource Guide to include the stories of the many impressive people who create our community…the leaders, the business owners, entrepreneurs, founders, non-profit chairs…this will showcase the diverse culture that lives in OurFESTUS community.

The website will have a clean and clear division of “Sara’s Stories” and the Support OurFESTUS Resource Guide. All pages/stories will be divided by industry/desired category.

MyFESTUS.com is:
