Skylar Jett, Executive Director

Skylar Jett is a 4th generation Idahoan born and raised in Mountain Home, Idaho. She grew up fly fishing with her grandma on the South Fork of the Boise River and exploring the Sawtooth Mountains, from their cabin in Atlanta, Idaho. A graduate of Boise State University, Skylar received her Bachelor’s degrees in International Business and Spanish and minored in Economics and Latin American Studies.

Previous to joining Idaho Business for the Outdoors, her career was in the public sector promoting Idaho food and agriculture domestically and internationally. During that time, she successfully organized trade missions in Southeast Asia, Latin America and Canada. She hosted buying delegations and coordinated large promotional events. After transitioning to domestic marketing, she managed the Idaho Preferred program, connecting Idaho food producers with retailers, restaurants, schools, and other suppliers.

Working closely with Idaho farmers, ranchers, and producers has given her the opportunity to travel all around the state, building business relationships and strengthening her appreciation for Idaho’s greatest assets, its land and waters. Skylar brings her experience and love of the outdoors, Idaho’s food producers, and a desire to connect with businesses across sectors to better support Idaho’s outdoors, to her new role as Executive Director.
