Why I'm Running
I loved my job as a prosecutor, but earlier this year, I made the difficult decision to step away from the work I care so deeply about. I could no longer ignore the changes that have weakened accountability, strained public trust, and put safety at risk.
I believe it’s time to restore confidence in the Hennepin County Attorney’s Office—with steady, experienced leadership that puts people and safety first.
The County Attorney’s Office must get back to the basics of justice while embracing the innovation and collaboration our communities deserve.
Leadership for a Safer Future
The Hennepin County Attorney’s Office needs common-sense leadership that’s both experienced and forward-thinking. I know what has worked in our system—and I have the vision to improve it for the future.
As your County Attorney, I will:
-
Restore confidence in the justice system
-
Uphold the law with fairness and integrity
-
Protect victims and families with compassion
-
Partner with our communities to keep every neighborhood safe
I’ll lead with both toughness and fairness, making sure the law is enforced without fear or favor.
Together, we can rebuild trust, uphold justice, and make Hennepin County safer for everyone.
