Growing up in a small town on the Mississippi River, I've chosen to work and raise my family in southeastern Minnesota.

Over my 20+ years as an attorney, I've helped mothers escaping from domestic abuse, parents trying to adjust parenting time schedules or collect child support, people seeking to medical or other treatment for a family member who is sick, and those who want to provide for their children and grandchildren after death.

Currently, I focus on helping people plan for times when they may be unable to make decisions for themselves, and taking care of family after death.

In my spare time, I enjoy cultivating a large vegetable garden, knitting or crocheting, and reading murder mysteries.
