Larsen as its senior director of government relations and corporate partnerships. Larsen joins doTERRA directly after serving as chief of staff to Utah Attorney General Sean D. Reyes and the Utah attorney general's office. She is the founder of public relations agency INTREPID and co-founder of the Utah Refugee Connection.
