I've based my life on lifting people up and caring for all people. Years spent helping youth in trouble with the law; helping families, men, women and children in shelters; working at the Shoreview Community Center as a Building Maintenance Worker.
My work experience: Maintenance worker for Rescue Missions in NY and CA; Mechanic's Helper with Rollo Trucking; Fork Lift Driver and Welder for North Shore Packing; Maintenance Ranch Hand for at risk youth; And other work involving manufacturing and trucking. I retired after working 27 years with the City of Shoreview in Maintenance.
Being involved in my community is important to me. For 20 years I've volunteered for Gospel Missions and Shelters for Men, Women, and families suffering from housing instability, addiction, and other circumstances that create poverty and lack of opportunity.
I've been a hard worker and dedicated volunteer since I was a young teenager. I will bring the same dedication to find a solution to the challenges of violence, safety, decline in infrastructure, and education. You'll get an experienced worker who will value your hard work and listen to your needs.

There are reasons people become homeless and those need to be addressed. We need to help find practical and loving solutions to sustainable and affordable housing.
I believe we are all responsible for public safety and we need police officers on our streets to deter crime. It takes both the community and our law enforcement agencies to work together to have a safe community. We need to work with our Congressional Representative in Washington D.C. by applying to public safety Federal Grants to pay for resources to curb crime on the Green Line and Gun Violence. Shot-Spotter for Saint Paul could have been paid for by a Federal Grant but Congress Woman McCollum denied Chief Axtell's request.
