I am married and have three amazing cats, Frank (15), Tank (15), and Sissy (13). I grew up in Milwuakee, WI and have lived in Duluth's Chester Creek area since 2006.

I love running! You can mostly see me on the road, but from time to time I am on the beautiful trails of the area or on the treadmill when the weather forces me inside. I have completed Grandma's Marathon once and the Garry Bjorkland Half Marathon over half a dozen times. In 2022, I ran the Eugene Curnow Trail Marathon, the William Irvin 5K, and the Park Point 5-Miler.

I have worked in retail management for 20 years. Most recently, I was at the Target here in Duluth. Before that, I managed at Express, Gander Mountain, Charlotte Russe, and Bath & Body Works.
