About
I was born and raised in Red Wing, MN and stayed in Minnesota for undergraduate and medical school studies, discovering my passion for reproductive healthcare along the way. I began to incorporate legislative advocacy into my work during OB/Gyn residency in Delaware. I am now working as an OB/Gyn Hospitalist in the Twin Cities.
I hope to empower individuals in their reproductive health decisions, work toward a world of equity, and ensure appropriate healthcare access to all with education and advocacy.
My home life revolves around my two perfect little girls and amazing husband.
