About Me

I have always dreamed of building my family through adoption, and am excited that you may consider me as a parent for your child!


I have a wonderfully supportive and close-knit family, and we are all looking forward to growing our family through adoption. I can't walk in your shoes and I would love to connect with you to understand the ongoing relationship you envision moving forward.


I am a caring, organized, and patient individual who enjoys the relaxed environment of the Minnesota metro suburbs. I am very close to my parents (and live only 20 minutes away). My life is surrounded with my two cats and dog as well as my parents' 3 cats and dog. I enjoy going to local parks to walk the dog, spending time with friends, and relaxing at home.

My Values and Promises

Two of the greatest gifts we can give our children are roots and wings


Mom and me
I value education and plan to encourage my child to do their best. I struggled with school early in life, but I persevered and, with family encouragement, am proud to say I have a master's degree in special education. After graduate school, I discovered a wonderful career, not in my field, but rewarding in a similar way. I am financially stable and love working in pediatric research for rare diseases.

I cherish family and friends as a source of strength, love and acceptance. They have given me so much in life and they are so excited to be able to do the same for my future child.

I will show my child love and affection and fill their days with wonderful experiences: the zoo and children's museums, playing sports, food truck fairs and cultural events, the beach, concerts and musicals, and giving back to the community! I promise to provide a loving and adventure-filled life for your child.
