I grew up in rural MN in a big family and eventually made my way to Guatemala to work as a Human Rights Accompanier for genocide survivors, worked in Minneapolis restaurants, worked at CTUL as the ally organizer and grant writer back when CTUL was younger, did paralegal immigration work at Legal Services and now I’m back again at CTUL as the Social Services Worker Advocate. Along with my work at CTUL, I’m a mama to 3 amazing kiddos and love being in the woods.
