Renee Storm is the coordinator for the ten-day residential Enviropreneur Institute as well as many other workshops and conferences. She joined PERC in August 2006 as an administrative assistant where she kept the “Ship of PERC” on course from the front office. She is a multi-tasking wizard and can solve a multitude of office problems while also answering the phones and moving piles of proposals, reports, and correspondence out the door and on time.
Before moving to Bozeman and joining PERC, Renee lived in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, where she worked as the conference coordinator for the West Penn Allegheny Health System, Allegheny General Hospital.
When not at work, Renee enjoys very early morning workouts, as well as cooking and baking. The PERC staff has benefited far too generously from her culinary skills. She lives in Bozeman with her husband, Jeremy, and their canine pal, Samuel.
Founded 30 years ago in Bozeman, Montana, PERC—the Property and Environment Research Center—is the nation’s oldest and largest institute dedicated to improving environmental quality through property rights and markets.
PERC’s publications, each designed to resonate with specific groups, move ideas generated at PERC to broader audiences.
Research is at the heart of PERC's work, with a focus on the question: What is the link between economic growth and environmental quality?
The goal of PERC’s programs is to fully realize the vision of establishing “PERC University,” where scholars, students, policy makers, and others convene to expand the applications of free market environmentalism.
PERC's fellowships share a common goal of exposing new scholars, students, journalists, and policy makers to free market environmentalism, as well as enable scholars already familiar with FME to explore new applications.
PERC continues to publish and present a broad range of research and discussion through podcasts, videos, and other multimedia channels.
