Issues
“I’m running because I love our district and believe it can be the place in Minnesota where every family wants to live.
Where we have affordable healthcare and clean water, education that supports teachers and students, and access to great infrastructure and the best recreation on and off the Mississippi River.”

LOWERING COSTS
As a small business owner, I’ve felt the hardships of political and economic uncertainty. Families are getting priced out of their homes and stressing over their budgets when it comes to buying the things we all need, like groceries.
Our government should make it easier for families to get ahead. I will fight for affordable housing so young people can finally buy their first homes and for investing in small businesses so our local economies can keep growing.
MAKING CARE AFFORDABLE
Everyone deserves to go to the doctor, send their kids to daycare, and access quality senior care without breaking the bank. I will stand up to insurance companies nickel-and-diming lifesaving care so that every Minnesotan has access to the healthcare they need to thrive.
CLEAN WATER
Every Minnesotan deserves clean, affordable water. Yet families throughout District 41B continue to face challenges from PFAS contamination, nitrate pollution and aging infrastructure. We shouldn’t have to choose between protecting our health and protecting our wallets. I will fight for investments in water infrastructure, support local farmers and agronomists in developing solutions, and ensure the cost of clean water isn’t placed on working families.
FIGHTING FRAUD
A dollar in fraud is a dollar too much. Early in my career, I worked for the Minnesota Department of Commerce in their Fraud Division. I know first-hand the devastating impacts fraud has on our people, economy, and government programs. One of my top priorities will be closing loopholes that make programs vulnerable to fraud, increasing transparency so Minnesotans know where their tax money is going, and holding bad actors accountable.
LEADERSHIP YOU CAN TRUST
Whether you are a Democrat or a Republican, we all want a government that will listen to us. We want an economy that values and works for everyone. We want to feel safe and respected in our communities. We want to be able to afford higher education, housing, and healthcare.I care about making your life better. I work for you, not huge corporations, not lobbyists in fancy suits – you.
I will deliver for this district, listen to our neighbors, and put you over politics, every time.
