About
I am passionate about community work and civic engagement. I have always been drawn to helping people, and was inspired by Paul Wellstone to enter public service. I studied political science/international relations at Carleton College, and worked for the City of Saint Paul for six years. I love to read, write, and keep up with current events. I am a movie buff as well as a military history nerd.
