Mikaela Perrault officially joined the Yakima Chief Ranches team in 2023. As the Marketing Manager, she develops all promotional marketing assets, assists in strategic planning, and supports alignment between partnering organizations. In May 2022, she graduated from Washington State University with a Bachelor of Arts degree in Interior Design and a Minor in Fine Arts. Prior to graduation, she worked on her family’s hop farm seasonally doing an array of jobs, which ultimately instilled a deep appreciation and respect for farming practices. This position allows her to combine two things she is very passionate about, the hop industry and creativity- the best of both worlds! Outside of work Mikaela enjoys spending time with her family and friends, the outdoors, concerts, and anything design related!
