Statement of Interest:
As a parent, community member, and government finance professional, I have developed a deep appreciation of the importance of supporting good health. I also have a keen recognition of the cost burden that healthcare can bring to families, businesses and taxpayers. I believe goals for improving health and making care and coverage more affordable can best be achieved through organizations like HealthPartners. My family and I have been satisfied members for over 20 years, and as a Board member I would be pleased to bring my experience in state and local financial management to help support HealthPartners' continued success.
