Amber (Andrews) Bowen works from home. Her office is in the corner of her basement in a farmhouse west of Britton. Her two computer monitors sit against the cinderblock wall. Occasionally she has to bang on her washing machine if it gets too loud while she’s on a meeting. While this situation might sound typical these days, especially in a post-COVID shutdown world, Bowen works for a company that you might not imagine a small-town South Dakota girl would work for: Ultimate Fighting Championship, better known as UFC.
