Connecting and building relationships within the communities about which I care deeply.
Being elected to Shorewood City Council and working for 8 years as the Executive Director of the Excelsior-Lake Minnetonka Chamber of Commerce gives me a unique perspective of commercial real estate and development needs. I spend endless hours observing human movement in our community, planning large scale events as well as supporting local businesses.
Whether it is for fun and entertainment or work and family, the value of belonging somewhere and feeling at home is undisputed. After the strange year we've experienced, there is no doubt the future of placemaking is bright!
We chose to raise our family in Shorewood and our 2 kids also graduated from Minnetonka High School. Throughout the years, we've spent many hours with friends and family on the water, at the rinks, on the fields, in the parks, on the trails, supporting local businesses and restaurants, and doing all the things this special place has to offer.
I look forward to meeting new people and seeing my old friends. Let me know how we can work together to connect your dreams!
