Welcome Friends & Neighbors
It has been an honor serving the residents of Corcoran, Greenfield, Hanover, Independence, Long Lake, Loretto, Maple Plain, Medicine Lake, Medina, Minnetrista, Minnetonka Beach, Mound, New Hope, Orono, Plymouth, Rockford, Rogers, Spring Park, St. Bonifacius, and Wayzata as the Three Rivers Park Commissioner District 1 for the past 7 years working to protect and strenghten our regional park system.
Each year, Three Rivers Park District receives over 16 million visits — more than twice the population of Minnesota! Our parks are among the region’s greatest community assets, and protecting them for future generations remains a top priority.
My Commitment to Our Parks

- Protect and preserve our natural resources
I remain committed to balancing recreation, conservation, and sustainability so the Three Rivers Park District continues to serve current and future generations.
I would be honored to continue serving as your Three Rivers Park Commissioner District 1 and earn your vote for re-election on November 3, 2026.
