Having spent the last two decades working as an educator and administrator, I've seen firsthand the devastating impact of unsupported mental and chemical health resources, vicious and untrue attacks on public education, the rising cost of living, and the inaccessibility of affordable healthcare. These challenges deeply affect our families and communities, and they are deeply personal to me, as I've witnessed them continue to impact the very community where I was born, raised, and continue to live.
 

Driven by this deep understanding and  profound care and belief in people, I am ready to take my passion and unwavering commitment to community into action. I am running for State Senate, determined to be a voice for Minnesota.
