ABOUT ME

I was born and raised in the Rocky Mountains of Colorado and I love all things outdoors. We grew up hiking, biking, skiing, camping and exploring life at altitude.

I moved to Minnesota in 2011 after a post-grad stint on the east and west coasts - New York City, NY and San Diego, CA, respectively.

I studied opera in college, graduating from the University of Denver with a Bachelor’s of Music in Classical Vocal Performance and carry a deep appreciation for the arts. From performing on stage, to working with clients, I have a true passion for creating memorable experiences.

While pursuing my childhood dreams of performing on Broadway, I put my creative talents and production skills to use building a career in marketing and events. Big names = big budgets and lots of pressure to make it happen. The good news is I tend to thrive when the stakes are high.

Outside of the agency world, a friend and I started a small business organizing fun run events at local breweries (Brewery Running Series®).

Our idea quickly snowballed. 15+ years later, we’ve built a national brand with events operating across the country. Brewery Running Series generates $1M in annual revenue and has donated over $750k back to local nonprofit organizations and charities.

In downtime, I enjoy making meals with family and friends, spending time in the garden, and exploring new destinations. I live for all 4 seasons and make time daily for walks with my dog, Rudi. I strive for balance in everything I do.

My husband and I split time between our lakeside home in Princeton, and our ‘city cabin’ in St Paul, MN. After a decade here in the land of 10,000 lakes - it's hard to beat a sunny day doing anything on, or around the water.
