I am excited to run for State Representative in District 18A! 

We all have a story, and mine is deeply rooted in Southern Minnesota. I was raised on a hobby farm near Kasota, attended St. Peter Public Schools, got my degrees at MSU, Mankato, and made North Mankato my home over 10 years ago.

In Southern Minnesota, we care deeply about our friends and neighbors and we value our community. That's why my campaign will center on bringing the voices of my district to St. Paul.
