Every summer, without fail, I spend at least a week in the Boundary Waters. My history with the BWCA and Quetico goes back to the early ‘80s, which is when I first fell in love with the silence and the scale of the North Woods. Since then, it has become a true family tradition.

I voted Republican most of my life. January 6th changed that. Now I'm running as the DFL candidate in 31A—against Harry Niska, the House Majority Leader who's more focused on managing a caucus than representing Ramsey and Andover. Strange origin story. Right moment for it.
