Annelise grew up in a military family with deep roots in Montana. Although she lived in numerous places (including nine years in Germany), Missoula was always home. After receiving an Elementary Education degree at the University of Montana Western in Dillon, she moved back to Missoula to raise her family. She became a Real Estate Agent in 2013 in order to share her passion for this magical community with others, and is now a Missoula Organization of Realtors State Board Director. Being a calm, strategic partner for clients feeds her soul. She enjoys coaching buyers and sellers through each step of what is often the largest financial transaction of their lives. Along the way, she represented Ward 5 on the Missoula City Council, and learned the ins and outs of the City of Missoula. Proudly in 2025, she became Co-Owner of Skin Chic, medical spa. This allows her to fulfill her passion for aesthetics, helping people in the community feel their best, and creating an internal culture of acceptance and celebration for staff. She gives back to Missoula in numerous ways, even starting the “Feed our Frontline Workers” during the Covid-19 pandemic. She has volunteered on numerous boards including the Missoula Economic Partnership, Missoula Building Industry Association, the Missoula Organization of Realtors and more.
