Native of Austin, MN. I have a deep love and commitment to the communities where Riverland Community College has campuses - Austin, Albert Lea and Owatonna. I've been fortunate to have interesting and challenging work in higher education and in public television (with its focus on creating an informed citizenry) spanning more than 30 years. My strengths in strategic planning, management, building collaborations, and leveraging resources have helped me lead many departments and programs at Riverland Community College.
