Program Associate, eMentors
Phone: 612-600-4042

As a Program Associate with eMentors, I’m passionate about helping young people discover their interests, build confidence, and find their own path to learning. I especially enjoy the connections that happen when mentors and students come together to share experiences, ask questions, and learn from one another.

Before joining eMentors, I spent 15 years at Target Corporation where I worked across finance, merchandising, and human resources. I also currently operate a retail consulting firm based in Edina, Minnesota where I have the opportunity to work with businesses and draw on my experience in retail strategy to help solve challenges and create opportunities for growth.

Outside of work, I’m an avid golfer, a huge fan of live music, and actively involved with Gopher Athletics and University of Minnesota football. I’m also a lifelong Pearl Jam fan...148 shows and counting.

I currently live in Edina, Minnesota with my wife and our three teenage boys. Life at home keeps me busy, entertained, and constantly learning—much like the work I do with students and mentors. Whether I’m helping create meaningful connections through eMentors, supporting Gopher athletics, chasing a golf ball, or standing in a concert crowd, I’m at my best when I’m learning, connecting, and enjoying the journey.
