Leadership for Carver County

“Having the opportunity to serve the County as a Commissioner has been rewarding and very challenging. As a first term Commissioner we are basically drinking from the fire hose, as we continue to learn and understand the various components of County Government.

My past experience as the former Mayor of Norwood Young America, a District 108 School Board member, Chairperson of the CC Planning Commission while also serving on the County’s Board of Adjustments and Park Board, and a 29-year member of the NYA Lions, has helped tremendously to hit the ground running!

With the expansion of Highway 212 and the ever-present challenges and pressures facing a rapidly growing county, continued leadership is crucial. I was humbled to be elected and challenged to run a successful campaign during the pandemic and would appreciate your support this fall.”
