Jen Poore moved from Detroit to Bozeman in 2002 with her husband Vince and their son Cameron.  Prior to that, she worked as a computer programmer.  The three Poores enjoy the slower pace of life in Bozeman.  All three are self-described computer geeks, and the router is always lit up when they're not out walking their dog in the neighborhood or at the dog park.
