As someone who is deeply passionate about helping survivors of domestic violence and sexual assault, I believe everyone deserves a safe place to share their experiences and be believed. I’ve served on the GARF Board for over ten years and currently have the honor of serving as President.

After graduating college and returning to Gillette, I knew right away that I wanted to be part of this organization that does so much for our community. My mother, who also served on the GARF board when I was a child, instilled in me the importance of giving back to the community that gives us so much. Her involvement shaped who I am today and continues to inspire my “why.” I have a deep passion for people, their stories, their struggles, and their resilience, and I believe connection is the foundation of change. 

Outside of GARF, I love traveling, a great concert, painting, the sun and spending time with my super awesome daughter, who I hope will one day share my desire to stand up for those who are too often not believed, overlooked or unheard.
