I grew up in Janesville and attended public schools. Both of my parents were educators. I went to UW-Milwaukee where I received a Bachelor of Arts degree. I went to UW-Whitewater for graduate school while working a variety of jobs in restaurants, financial services, agriculture and small business. After completing my MBA, I joined Kimberly-Clark Corporation in Neenah and moved as my work changed, but always found the Fox Valley my home.

Kimberly-Clark allowed me to explore all facets of my education and passions, spending the last 5 years in Strategy & Innovation. I went to Thrivent Financial and, for three years, used my strategic planning knowledge. I started my own consulting practice in 2019, focusing on strategic planning and implementation. It gave me an opportunity to work with new and growing organizations. I’ve also had a chance to give back to the community, spending three years on the Neenah Joint School District Board of Education.

I’m running for office as an advocate for Public Education and reproductive health care. I’m confident I will leverage Wisconsinites' ideas to move Wisconsin forward together.

  • Public Education is critical to a strong labor force and innovation and entrepreneurships. I encouraged the Neenah Joint School District to work with the community, families, and businesses to understand their needs and develop partnerships to deliver relevant curriculum. In addition, with my background in Finance I'm able capable of leading in modernizing our public education system.
  • I decided to run for state assembly when I learned of the leaked draft SCOTUS decision to overturn Roe v. Wade. I feel strongly that women must be equal partners in our society, that our businesses and schools are better off when our workforce is diversified, and that women are better able to get the medical care they need when reproductive decisions are left between a woman and her doctor. Government has no role in the doctor appointments and medical records of anyone.
  • Bigger issues including climate change, access to health care, our democracy, and returning to civility require tackling by people who care about Wisconsin and are willing to work hard to ensure the people of our state are protected. Difficult problems can and will be solved together when people are represented and when our representatives are accountable to the people of our state.
