I’m a native of Minnesota. Although I love my home state, I was happy to trade mosquitos for mountains and now can’t imagine living anywhere other than Colorado.
Family, nature, and community are central in my life. When those converge, life is especially good — such as in whitewater rafting, skiing, camping, Ultimate frisbee, tennis, hiking, and all the other outdoor pursuits that are a normal part of the Colorado lifestyle.
Professionally, in the 80’s, I was a CPA in San Francisco before returning to Minnesota to run our family’s photo processing business. In the 90’s, I was a founder and project manager during the development of Heartwood Cohousing. I have now returned to my project manager role for Heartwood as we build our second phase of homes in 2025.
