Moorhead roots.
Grounded in solutions.
This community raised me to value every voice. As a nurse, I’ve learned that the best outcomes start with listening. I’m running for the Minnesota House of Representatives because good policy, like good healthcare, begins by listening first and building solutions alongside the people it serves.
Our Priorities
Healthcare
Healthcare doesn’t work if it’s out of reach. I support affordable insurance paired with real access to care — including mental health services and strong local providers. Health isn’t built only in clinics and hospitals; it’s built in our homes, schools, workplaces, and communities, and our policies should reflect that reality.
Education
Strong public schools are the backbone of prosperous communities. Schools nurture and guide our next generation, are Moorhead’s largest employers, and are central to workforce development. With so much at stake, fully funding our public schools must be a priority.
Affordability
Affordability is the concern I hear most often from families. It touches housing, childcare, food access, and transportation, and it improves when systems work together instead of in silos. Strong state partnerships can build on local solutions and help make everyday life more affordable.
