Amanda Love
President/CEO A proud Humboldt resident, Amanda Love is the President/CEO of the Humboldt Chamber of Commerce.

She feels that the various skills learned throughout her career are a benefit for the many roles the Chamber of Commerce plays. Amanda’s husband Jeff is a lifelong Humboldt resident.

A born planner, she takes her role seriously to give every attendee the best time possible. A graduate of Union University, Beth and her husband Ashley have a beautiful daughter Josie and sweet pup Sissy. As a matter of fact, she’s probably best known as “Josie’s Mom.” Beth also works part-time at her husband’s business, Lashlee-Rich Building Materials LLC on Main Street in Humboldt.
