Other facts
I am a software developer, small-business owner, and former school music teacher who lives on a ten-acre hobby farm in Vermillion Township. As a software developer, I solve problems for a living. I look forward to doing the same for the people of this district! As a small-business owner, I understand many of the challenges that these businesses face. As a former teacher, I recall many of the issues facing today's educators. Our district needs an independent voice who will represent all of us in the district and who will work with everyone, regardless of party affiliation, to solve the problems facing Minnesota. I would be honored to be that voice for District 58 in the Minnesota Senate, and I ask for your vote on November 6.
