I was born and raised in Black River Falls. I attended Viterbo University and Southwest Tech. I am a member of the Bear Clan and enjoy hunting, hiking and fishing. I am a devoted mother to 3 wonderful children. I enjoy spending time with family and friends.

As a tribal member it is extremely important to me that the Department of Health remains focused on providing quality care while maintaining our cultural values and traditions. Our main priority in Community Health is to achieve sustainable performance beyond what is thought possible by unlocking the limitless capacity of the Nations most valued resource-our people.

Community Health is focused on the hiring of tribal members into the leadership team to influence the programs that we offer within Community Health. I believe the key to a healthier nation is through our culture, traditions and our teachings.
