Maranda Beck
Chief Operating Executive
Start Date: 7/16/2019
Personal Highlights
When I am not at work, I enjoy time with family and friends, gardening, entertaining guests at home, or having a large glass of wine on my back deck. Occasionally, I’ll get some free time and sneak off with a good book. I love learning as much as I can about as much as I can, but at times I also find joy in escaping reality, so books are good for both.

Personal Highlights
I live in Ankeny where I spend my days with my family at home. I have two beautiful girls 10 and 7 years. My boyfriend of 7 years who just recently proposed on Valentine’s Day and his twins who are also 10 years old. With the three only one month apart in age it gets pretty hectic in our house. I find enjoyment in my crafts, puzzles, baking and spoiling my cat. When I’m not at home I enjoy the company of my friends over a cocktail and my team members when we play recreational volleyball.
