With the Ambassadors

Beyond their outreach efforts, the ambassadors bring a vibrant energy to events. They masterfully orchestrate ribbon-cutting ceremonies that celebrate our new members, infusing each occasion with a sense of community and celebration. Their involvement extends to prominent events such as Wake Up Watertown and Business After Hours, where they provide invaluable support to ensure a seamless experience.

Tina Johnson
Chairperson
Mary Kay Cosmetics

As a dedicated Chamber Member for six years and a volunteer Ambassador for five, I have found immense fulfillment in being part of our welcoming and supportive business community. Growing up in Luxemburg, WI, as the eldest of four girls, I cherished my time as a cheerleader and later pursued a Psychology Major at UWEC. My career has been diverse, including roles in Human Resources, Domestic Abuse Coordination, Special Education, and Insurance Agency Customer Service. However, it was my introduction to Mary Kay products 24 years ago that led me to start my own business, which has become the professional love of my life. Through my work with Mary Kay, I am passionate about empowering others and spreading positivity, whether through skincare and color products, pampering gifts, or helping others start their own businesses. With my family priorities in place, I am now focused on building my business and earning the first Pink Cadillac in Watertown.

I am immensely grateful for the support and encouragement from the community and the Chamber for my Mary Kay business. I truly appreciate the opportunities to make a positive impact and am excited about the future as I continue to empower others and thrive in the business community.

Born and raised in Watertown, I ventured from Watertown High School to the University of Wisconsin-Whitewater, earning a degree in Business and Marketing. My journey in finance began at Landmark Credit Union, eventually leading me to become Vice President at M&I Bank, before taking on the role of Branch Manager at Bank of Lake Mills in Watertown, where I’ve served for the past decade.

My work is deeply rooted in my hometown, aiding consumers and businesses. There’s unparalleled satisfaction in witnessing customers and employees reach their goals. My commitment extends beyond professional duties; I’ve been an active Kiwanis member and Chamber Ambassador for over 20 years, currently serving on the Chamber Board of Directors and as Vice Chair of the Executive Board.

My life in Watertown is shared with my husband, our three sons, and two granddaughters. In my leisure time, I hike, play tennis, enjoy cultural events, and explore new places. My heart belongs to Watertown, where my professional endeavors and community engagement intertwine.

Chandler House Bakery

Watertown Area Chamber of Commerce Ambassador (since 2023)

I am a proud, third-generation Watertownian. My parents Donna (Raether) and Bob created a home in this community. My grandpa, Stan, taught at Watertown High School. My brother, Rob, and I graduated from Watertown High, as have many aunts and uncles before us.

I moved to Oshkosh, WI in 1998 to finish my Bachelor of Business Administration at UW Oshkosh, continuing to live in that community for 20 years. I completed my Master of Science and Ph.D. in Educational Leadership & Policy Analysis from UW Madison. For the past 18 years, I’ve worked for Sodexo, starting my career in campus marketing, working as a Project Manager with our airport lounge (United & Delta) partnerships, and now serving as a Director of Diversity, Equity & Inclusion Experience. I lead our PRIDE Employee Business Resource Group for the United States.

My wife, April, and I moved back home to Watertown in April 2019 and have not only made our home here, but also opened Chandler House Bakery at 411 E. Main St. A trained pastry chef, with Michelin-starred restaurant experience in Chicago, April is proud to bring delicious treats to the community she’s embraced as her home. April previously served as a Watertown Chamber of Commerce Ambassador as well.

We are pet parents to our five furbabies – Dexter, Dottie, Binx, Bailey & Scrappy and enjoy giving back to the community who has so beautifully supported us and our business. Being kind, giving hugs and creating a safe space for people is incredibly important to us. Our family and friends who became family are the folks we spend our free time with. We are proud to be a part of Watertown’s Historic Downtown Main Street and hope to be a destination for residents and visitors for years to come.

If you know of a business that has not yet joined the Chamber of Commerce, please encourage them to join or reach out to one of the Chamber of Commerce Ambassadors. Our Chamber of Commerce membership has brought us so many rewards by means of networking, friendships and feeling a part of the community.

Jammie Belstner
Chairperson
Express Employment Professionals

I am a proud small-town Wisconsin native who grew up in Elkhorn and graduated from Elkhorn Area High School before earning an Associate Degree in Business Management and Human Resources Management from Madison College.

With a heart for people and community, I began my career as a lifeguard, which sparked a passion for caregiving and led to more than 12 impactful years supporting individuals facing challenges across Wisconsin. During that time, I advanced into leadership roles, managing multiple group homes, leading care teams, and practicing compassionate, people-first leadership.

In 2021, I transitioned into the corporate world, joining 7UP Watertown’s sales and merchandising team. After the company became part of Keurig Dr Pepper in 2022, I stepped into the role of Office Coordinator, where I supported internal teams, community initiatives, and Employee Resource Groups focused on women, parents, and caregivers.

I am deeply involved in the community and currently serve on the Board of Directors for the Watertown Senior Center, Watertown Youth Football, and Watertown Youth Basketball.

In 2024, I became the Director of Sales at The Marquardt, where I built meaningful relationships, supported families, and expanded community outreach efforts.

September 2025, I started at Express Employment Professionals as a Business Development Manager, helping companies find long-lasting employees and build strong, reliable workforces.

Married to my husband Ryan, and a proud parent of two, I have called Watertown home since 2016. I am a dedicated Chamber of Commerce Ambassador and the enthusiastic MC of Wake-Up Watertown, proud to champion my community and contribute to its continued growth and vibrancy.
