The Team

Dave & Erin Ritchey

We’re Dave and Erin Ritchey, proud to call Bigfork our home after a decade of service as a Navy family. We’re parents to four young children and couldn’t imagine a better place to raise them — the Flathead, the Swan, and endless mountain miles.

Erin spent the last decade in risk management and accounting — insurance, financial analysis, and expat payroll tax at the corporate level. Dave brings a background in naval aviation and cargo operations, and is completing a Master of Accounting at UNC Kenan-Flagler.
