Hondl says at a young age she knew she wanted to be healthcare, and her desire to learn and grow propelled her to eventually become a CEO.

It's been a really fun journey. I've gotten to meet so many people, and that's the thing about me, I love making connections and learning from others. I'm just eternally grateful for this opportunity.

Since her time as CEO, she has played a role in helping RDR expanding their capabilities with the opening of The Vein Center in 2005, MedSpa in 2009 and Alliance Imaging - a partnership with CentraCare - in 2021.

Her advice to others looking to grow in their careers is to not be afraid to learn and try new things.

I think it people do that, if you're willing to learn and have good people supporting you, you're going to be a good leader across the board.

She says as a leader you're only a good as the team you lead, and feels she's been blessed with a wonderful team during her 22 year career at RDR.

Hondl, along with the other award winners, will be honor at a special luncheon put on by the Chamber on May 3rd at The Park Event Center.
