I am from a small town in Minnesota, and I am currently in my third year at Michigan Tech majoring in Robotics and Electrical Engineering. When I’m not in class, I really enjoy doing anything outdoors, such as hiking, hammocking, cross-country skiing, or mushing. I have always loved being around nature and animals. I have three cats and a dog at home. I was very happy that I found the mushing club because I got to do all of my favorite things. I have loved getting to know all of the dogs, and I am super excited to be doing my second race with them.

WHAT INSPIRED YOU TO START RUNNING SLED DOGS AND HOW OLD WERE YOU WHEN YOU STARTED?
When I went out with some other club members after one of the first snowfalls, that was the first time I rode in a sled, and I thought that it was the coolest thing ever, and I couldn’t wait to be driving a team on my own. I was 19 years old
