I am a 30 year resident of Bogus Brook Township just south of Milaca. I have been a licensed alcohol and drug counselor for 30 years. I have been a non profit leader, Director of Health and Human Services for the Mille Lacs Band of Ojibwe and am currently a part owner of a health tech company that serves people with substance use issues. I served 3 terms on the Milaca School Board, several years as Board Chair. For twenty years I have worked to support rural DFL candidates in and around Mille Lacs County.
