A Commonsense Mom Who Works For You

I am the proud mother of three energetic boys, Adam, and twins Charles and James, and we are blessed to be raising our family in Waconia.

Prior to becoming the youngest woman ever elected to the Minnesota State Senate, I served on the Chanhassen City Council and worked in Minnesota’s largest industry, health innovation and medical technology. I am a passionate mental health advocate and continue to mentor young women through the Miss America Organization.

Nine months pregnant with my first baby, I was called to run for the Senate, determined to build a brighter future for my children and the next generation of Minnesotans.

In my first term, I fulfilled my campaign promises by successfully passing legislation to support growing families, fighting for law enforcement and safer communities, and securing historic funding to expand Highway 212, one of the most dangerous stretches of highway in the state.

Since then, I have continued delivering strong results for our district. I have secured $73 million in critical infrastructure investments for local projects that will improve public health, safety, and mobility. I have fought for meaningful tax relief for working families, small businesses, and retirees. As the Republican Lead on the Senate Education Policy Committee, I have worked to improve student outcomes, promote literacy and math excellence, enhance school safety, and empower parents. I have also continued advocating for public safety, supporting our law enforcement heroes, protecting vulnerable mothers through workplace accommodations, and fighting rampant fraud.

It has been the honor of a lifetime serving this district. I’m incredibly proud of the progress we’ve made, and I’m excited to continue fighting hard for lower costs, educational excellence, safer streets, and the common-sense solutions our community deserves.

In the years ahead, I will keep working tirelessly for safe neighborhoods, thriving businesses, quality education, and policies that help families afford everyday life in Minnesota. I am seeking not only your support, but your input as well. I look forward to continuing our conversations on the campaign trail and building an even stronger future together.
