I bring over 12 years of professional experience in healthcare, leadership, and community engagement, paired with an MBA and a strong interest in process improvement. Guided by the principle of "constructive dissatisfaction for the status quo," I enjoy identifying opportunities for growth and innovation. My background includes mentoring team members, managing budgets, and leading initiatives such as education programs and workflow optimization projects. As a SCORE volunteer, I am passionate about helping new entrepreneurs turn their business ideas into reality and supporting small business owners in streamlining operations, tackling challenges, and achieving sustainable growth in the Northeast Minnesota region.
