I started my career in healthcare 24 years ago, working with adults with disabilities in both residential and day program settings. In the past four years, my career focus has been geared towards long term care. I currently serve as the Activity Director for Avera Granite Falls Care Center and the Hospitality Housing Manager for Avera Granite Ridge Senior Living in Granite Falls, MN.

I am actively involved with the Minnesota Statewide Activity Professionals organization, serving in multiple roles for Region 5, LeadingAge MN District E Vice-President, and serve on the Board of Directors for WorkAbilties, Inc., a day program in Golden Valley, MN.
