Synergism
Together, we are more than we are separately
Aimee McQuilkin (she/her)
Founder of Betty’s Divine and co-founder of Divine Trash Vintage, Trash Club and Clark Fork Yacht Club, Aimee sees entrepreneurship as a way to co-create community with her community. Business doesn't interest her as much as the freedom of expression and creativity, exploring curiosity, sharing resources and authentic connections do. Missoula has been a place of abundance for her to cultivate this lifestyle since the 90's.
Current style inspirations are British sea villages, skater boys, daddy’s lil daddy, and the vibrancy of Mexico City.
Sam Burris (she/her)
Sam fell out of her Mom in Oklahoma, clowned around Seattle for 10 years and is now pretending to hike in Missoula. She’s got her pard’ner, Joe, at home to help tame their beasts, Ollie, Cricket & Minnow. You don’t need to know much, but the highlights are: She hates chocolate, is allergic to grass, can’t drink champagne, and only likes roses when they’re made of Shakespearean sonnets. Sam’s personal style is rarely trendy and can be best described as that of a bag. More than anything, she believes in the power of personal style !
Alice Brown (she/her)
I grew up in Missoula, and went to Hellgate High School. I spent many lunch breaks rummaging through old sale bins and vintage t-shirts with friends. Now I handle all the vintage pieces before we put them out. I’m the Betty’s basement troll! I love finding weird treasures in old pockets and purses! I spend my summers at the Clark Fork Yacht Club, sending tubers down the river in hot pink tubes.
Ava Hitterdal (she/her)
Ava moved to Missoula from Fargo, ND in 2021 in search of wide open spaces. She spent year in NY learning chainstitch embroidery on an antique machine. She is passionate about shopping second hand, sewing, mending and up-cycling.

Beth Rademan (she/her)
Beth Rademan is the oh-so-talented seamstress for Betty’s! In addition to being a master of the sewing machine, she has also been a dental assistant for past 38 years. Beth learned to sew from her mom and in home ec classes (looks like someone was paying attention in school!). In 2008, Beth started her own mending business, “Mending Done Right.” In her spare time, she likes to make tee shirt quilts and donate them to International Brotherhood of Electrical Workers, who her SO is a member of. And when she’s not mendin’ or cleanin’ teeth, you can find her visiting her lovely daughter in Spokane, or shopping at thrift stores.
