Gabrielle Budder is from Claremore, Oklahoma, a 2017 graduate of Claremore High School, and a 2020 graduate of Northeastern State University (NSU). Gabrielle is Cherokee.

Gabrielle is passionate about utilizing media to bring to life the stories and experiences of Tribal Communities and Peoples. Whether it’s through social media and clever meme production or print media which meets leading industry standards, Gabrielle will ensure the message is spread far and wide.

In the Summer of 2021, when Roe V. Wade decision came down from the U.S. The Supreme Court, 4Next7 needed to move swiftly. Gabrielle was quick to develop an official News Release in conjunction with the rest of the 4Next7 Council. The news release was professional and shared with area print news media organizations. The release was picked up by more than one media outlet, including the Tahlequah Daily Press.

Gabrielle is a natural mediator, a strong listener, and a thoughtful parliamentarian. As 4Next7 has grown, dialogue has taken place with respect to the values, principles, and ethics by which the organization will operate. As these occasions arise, Gabrielle rises to meet them. Gabrielle is quick to grab a pencil, thoughtfully write down the words which are being shared, and is instrumental in helping the group chart a common path forward.

Gabrielle Budder is thoughtful, clever, and creative. 4Next7 is fortunate to have her as a Public Relationships Officer and Teammate.
