While Rena Hansen, CPA, started her tenure with the firm as a “tax season copy girl” in 1991, by 1997 she completed her BS in accounting and, within 5 years, had become partner. As a partner at BDM, her practice focuses on business and individual tax preparation, small business setup and consulting. She is also an active community member, having been involved with the Board of First Security Bank Missoula, Five Valleys Pony Club, HomeWord, Fort Courage Childcare, the Missoula Food Bank, Child Care Resources, Leadership Missoula, Friends of the Civic Stadium, and Loyola Sacred Heart Foundation. Outside of work, Rena’s Darby, Montana roots and competitive spirit make her an avid sports fan (go Griz). She enjoy golfing and lake time with her husband, Scott, and children, Connor and Hanna.
