With 14 years of experience in the nonprofit sector, I’ve spent my career helping individuals create positive, lasting change in their lives. Growing up in Minnesota, I developed a strong sense of community and resilience—values that continue to shape my work and personal life.
Outside of work, I enjoy tennis, playing pool, fishing, and making the most of summer with outdoor adventures and visits to amusement parks. In the winter, I take time to recharge, embracing the cozy solitude until the warmth of spring arrives.
One of my favorite quotes, by Jane Marczewski, resonates deeply with me: “You can’t wait until life isn’t hard anymore before you decide to be happy.” It’s a reminder to choose joy, no matter the obstacles life may bring.
