I enjoyed participating in track and cross country while at Loras; learning to balance the demands of multiple commitments and the importance of taking care of self. I have three children who are the center of my life. I grew up on a dairy farm with two hard working parents, that I credit for my strong work ethic which has carried over to my practice of law and being an involved parent.
