Welcome! I’m a passionate advocate for animals, a small business owner, and a proud mom. I grew up in Mankato, Minnesota, and have been rooted in Redwood Falls for nearly 13 years. I currently serve as the Shelter Manager at the Redwood Area Animal Shelter, where I oversee day-to-day operations, ensure exceptional care for every animal, and work tirelessly to match them with loving forever homes. My approach to animal welfare is driven by empathy, education, and a deep commitment to advocacy.

In addition to my work at the shelter, I run a home-based baking business that allows me to share my love for creativity and comfort through homemade treats. Baking is one of my happy places, and it brings me joy to make something special for others.

Outside of work, I’m a mom to a wonderful 7-year-old son and a playful Australian Shepherd named Finnley. I enjoy knitting, reading, going for walks, watching TV and movies, and studying the Bible.

Thank you for stopping by! Be sure to contact me if you have any questions or to chat!
