She was sworn into office on January 24, 2023, by District Court Judge Ashley Harada at Helena.

In her personal life, Hastings lives with her husband, Jason, and their four children in Billings. Together, Hastings and her husband co-own Proof Donuts & Coffee, while Hastings herself is a founder of 6H Talent, a talent acquisition firm. She is an alumna of the University of Phoenix, graduating with a Bachelor of Business Administration in 2002. After the birth of their children, the Hastings family moved from Washington to Billings due to the political climate of Washington, which Hastings stated would not allow her to raise her four children with the values her family espouses.
