Freeman serves Native-owned business in multiple capacities

Felecia Freeman did not plan to seek out a board seat with the American Indian Chamber of Commerce of Oklahoma.
It just sort of fell into her lap.
“I don’t think I ever officially ran,” she said with a smile. “It was one of those situations where the officers and members asked me to do this. Last year, I said we might have more capable people available, but it was easy for the board to ask me as someone who knows how to put items on the agendas and upload them and take minutes. I didn’t just jump out and say, ‘I’ll do it.’”
