I grew up in Southwest Minneapolis. After graduating from Totino-Grace, I attended St. Olaf, where I studied Political Science and Environmental Studies while also playing for the men's soccer team. When I was at St. Olaf, my friends and I would regularly get tacos from El Triunfo and Cocos and sit by the river. 

I have two favorite places at St. Olaf. The first is the Rolf Melby soccer field, where I spent many afternoons practicing and playing with the men's soccer team. It's best during the fall when the leaves begin to change and the weather cools down. My second favorite is the top floor of Holland Hall. It is a quiet study space where I felt most productive and has an awesome view of Old Main.
