I was born and raised in a strong farming community in Iowa. After college, I worked for a nonprofit piloting a Farm-to-School program in Dubuque, Iowa. Then my husband and I moved to rural Wisconsin where I worked at a UW-Madison Agricultural Research Station. I am very inspired by art and I work as a part-time portrait and lifestyle photographer. We recently moved to the UP after many visits here and we are so happy to be apart of this community. In my free-time you can find me exploring new trails and towns, diving into a new creative hobby and hanging out with my two cats!
