The Board of Directors govern the RMHPBA in partnership with staff and HPBA. They are elected to a two-year term by members of the association. 

Meet the Board

Barbara Brennan, Vice President
I've been in the industry since 2009. HPBA is an amazing resource and support for all those in the hearth industry, but the success of the overall organization is reliant on participation. I joined the board to contribute what I can, represent my state, and learn more about how the industry as a whole works and cooperates in a way that is beneficial for businesses.

He owns and operates Porter’s Mountain View Supply, a family business founded in 1978 with locations in Riverton and Casper, Wyoming, specializing in hot tubs, grills, and hearth products. A graduate of the University of Wyoming, Leo is a former participant in HPBA’s GALA leadership program and is passionate about advocacy, education, and strengthening the voice of specialty retailers across the region.

I want to learn more about how the RMHPBA works and to be of service. I have been in the industry for 20 years. I still love it and would like to see it grow.

Nick Uhles

Having been in the industry since 2016, I serve on the board to act in the best interest of not only our business, our customers’ businesses, but the industry as a whole. I think it’s important to be involved in advocacy for policies and regulations that directly affect our hearth and outdoor products industry. I enjoy providing ideas and being directly involved in how we can increase our membership and overall awareness throughout the Rocky Mountain region.
