Eclectic may be the best way to describe Kourtney Govro, owner of The Quilted Cow in Raymore, MO. She is the author of 5 books, PhD student, former CEO of a software company, consultant to major corporations and mergers and acquisitions, advisor to health systems on communications technology, and now a quilt shop owner. Her life motto is “She believed she could, so she did,” and that is how she approaches all tings. In 2020 she lost her brother to cancer, which made her shift from a career-driven technologist to look for a career where she could interact with and help people. In that same year, her mom taught her to quilt. In 2023, she worked with The Quilted Cow in Branson West to be the first franchise of their organization. We look forward to her trunk show and quilting story.
