I grew up downriver and on Crooked Lake. I’m excited to be part of a field where I can work closely with the community and help people in meaningful ways. Outside of work, I love spending time with my cats and puppy, tending to my garden, diving into ancient history and astronomy, and listening to all the health podcasts I can find. I’m also an avid reader and always curious to learn something new. On weekends, you’ll usually find me out adventuring with my pup, kayaking, or enjoying a relaxing day at the beach or lake.
