Executive Board
I have over 40 years of union service and come from a long line of proud union family members. I began my career with LiUNA in 1999 as a Business Manager for Indian Health Service, Local 1386 in Phoenix, Arizona. I was active in forming the Indian Health Service National Council in 2006.
I am a 2nd generation Union Member and I started my career at Rosebud South Dakota in their Radiology department. I later moved on to the Radiology department in Winnebago Nebraska where I became the Chief Union Steward after a few years of being a Steward I was offered a Full Time Employee Representative position with Local 5251.
I was born and raised in the Bemidji area. I have worked with the Indian Health Service since 2011 as a clinic nurse. With twelve years’ experience working as an employee of the Indian Health Service, I am familiar with how roles and departments operate. I am able to relate to employees on that peer level.
