Employee Spotlight - Carrie Armstrong

12 September 2022 StephanieE Employee Spotlight
My name is Carrie Armstrong, and I am the Administrative Assistant for Red Wing Software. Chances are when you call in; I am the voice on the other end. I have been here for just over three years. I am from Red Wing, Minnesota, originally and have lived here my whole life. I have been married for 22 years to my husband Lucas, and we have two children: Jasmyn, who is 21 and Myles, who is 19 years old. We have one dog Bentley, and two cats, Loki and Binx. In my free time, I enjoy spending time with my family and friends.
Most recently, I became a grandma for the very first time. On July 4th this little firecracker came into the world weighing 8 lbs. 11 oz. and 19.25” long. Her name is Maren Elizabeth, and she is absolutely the light of my life. I think there have only been three days that I have not stopped by to see her since she was born. I am fortunate that my daughter and her husband live less than a mile away from me, and it’s on my way home, so I can use the excuse, “I was just driving by and thought I’d stop to say hi”. Ha ha ha!
I love my job at Red Wing Software and look forward to speaking with you when you call in!!!
