I am very proud of being part of Girl's State and being elected the Governor in 1995. I continue to be very active in politics and credit Girls State with giving me a deep reverence for our democracy. To me Social Justice advocacy is part of my duty as an American citizen. We are very lucky to live in a democracy and I have a great deal of respect for the election process.

I graduated from Macalester College in 2000. During college I had the chance to study abroad in Spain. After graduation a student work visa allowed me to work in Scotland. On returing to the United States I went to Massage school. All these years, I have run my own business and been an instructor. Now that my girls are teenagers, I am enrolled in a Master of Social Work program.
