As a Chanhassen parent, I want my child — and every child in Eastern Carver County — to graduate ready for whatever comes next: college, a trade, or a career. That starts with a relentless focus on academic achievement, with reading, math, and writing done well.

I bring more than 15 years of business and budget leadership to this race. I know how to read a budget, ask hard questions, and make sure every dollar reaches the classroom. Families and taxpayers deserve that accountability.

My priorities are straightforward: academic excellence built on high standards and measurable results; fiscal accountability and transparent spending; safe, secure schools; genuine transparency with parents as partners; and real support for the teachers who make it all work.

Parents know their children best and deserve a seat at the table. I’ll be a board member who listens, tells the truth, and keeps students first. I am the only candidate with a child in a school the district represents.
