The Ames Chamber of Commerce is excited to welcome Crystal Davis to the team as Executive Director of Ames Main Street (AMS).

“Crystal understands what it takes to lead our main street organization because she understands Ames,” said Dan Culhane, President & CEO of the Ames Chamber of Commerce. "For much of her career, she has been embedded in our community in a variety of ways, including here at the Ames Chamber of Commerce. I am excited to welcome Crystal back.”

As the Executive Director of Ames Main Street, Davis will serve as the primary public relations person for Ames Main Street and will oversee the daily operations and programming. She will actively work with the Ames Main Street Board of Directors, the City of Ames, and private investors, to help make Downtown Ames better. This includes property development, business recruitment, and long-range planning. This position also serves as the main point of contact for the Campustown program.

Prior to joining the Ames Chamber of Commerce, Davis most recently worked with the Mary Greeley Medical Center Foundation as their Donor & Corporate Engagement Officer. She was responsible for donor and corporate relations programming while leading the marketing and communication efforts of the Foundation. Prior to that, Davis worked for the Story County Medical Center Endowment Foundation, as well as the Ames Convention & Visitors Bureau. In that capacity, Davis worked both in Member & Visitor Services and communications.

"Downtown Ames is the heartbeat of the Ames community, full of arts and culture, history, vibrant shopping, unique dining experiences, and is a large part of what makes Ames the place to live, work and play,” said Davis. “I am excited to work with Ames Main Street businesses to create an even more vibrant destination for residents and visitors alike!"

​Davis began her position on November 30 and can be reached at crystal@ameschamber.com
