I have been serving on the board and have a good understanding of where the district is at plus a strong backgound in education funding in Minnesota. I am a problem solver and bring the perspective of the local business community as we balance the needs of providing the best education we can to our students while respecting the concerns of our tax payers.

1. Developing a new strategic plan that will set the roadmap for the ROCORI District for the next 3-5 years. 2. Continue to assess the facilities and grounds so that we maintain what we have and can add what we need as the area continues to grow. We have buildings that are 30 to 50 years old with systems that need to be replaced with limited education funding to cover all the needs. 3. Continue to work towards meeting the needs of students so that all students can be successful.
Look for cuts that have the least impact on the classroom and kids.
With a focus on building community and making it possible for every child to succeed.
By being accessible and listening to concerns and feedback. By inviting parents and staff to get involved on the many advisory committees that we have.

The League of Women Voters of Minnesota and North Dakota crafted the questions sent to the candidates in the Spring of 2024. They reached out to candidates based on contact information in their public candidate filings. Candidates with email addresses were invited and reminded with emails. Candidates with only mailing addresses were sent a letter. Candidates with phone numbers received a phone call as well.

Candidate responses are published as they responded and have not been edited, except when responses were longer than the given character limit. In those cases, the responses are truncated.
