Not only will the products they design there save lives, but also their gold level LEED certified building presents a stunning face to our community for westbound travelers, especially at night when it is lit up blue!

As a city council member, seeing business thrive in our community makes me SO happy! Boston Scientific had a ribbon cutting of its new facility this morning along I-94.

I am proud that district 37 is home to a vibrant Hindu community and the 2nd largest mandir in the country. Wishing you all a very Happy Diwali! May this festival of lights bring you prosperity, health, and good fortune.

Although it took me longer to finish the PhD and so I was a gopher longer, I am still fond of my time at NDSU. Go Bison!

I am a proud NDSU alumna. I graduated in 2005 with two bachelorโ€™s degrees and years of experience on the student newspaper. My oldest brother and my dad also went to NDSU. It is a great smaller land grant university that prepared me for graduate school at the U of M Twin Cities campus.

Final day of priorities series. Today is rebuilding trust and transparency.

Kristy's work in public service has placed her face to face with residents on a daily basis. As a city council member, she works hard so residents know that she is a phone call or email away and that their voices matter.

As a daughter and granddaughter I have always revered seniors for their wisdom and experience and will look for ways to support them when I am elected to the state senate

I joined the St Therese senior living facility in Corcoran today for their Fall Fest. I talked with residents from Greenfield, Otsego, and Corcoran who were considering St Therese for their future home.

They have been overlooked in funding processes because they are part of a metro county, while in reality, they are rural communities. Kristy will be a strong partner to the cities in the district because she knows what it takes for local governments to deliver essential public services.

Day five in our priorities series. Today is investing in local infrastructure.

As a city council member, Kristy is keenly aware of the challenges cities face with public infrastructure. Parts of district 37 do not have reliable broadband infrastructure.

I stopped in at Fall Fest 2025 at Gale Woods Farm, a Three Rivers Park District property adjacent to District 37. Many families brought their children to see the farm animals, fiber crafts, food, and nature trails. They are also open tomorrow from 10 am to 4 pm

Kristy supports public engagement efforts to deepen those community ties. She has long followed technological innovations in law enforcement and supports new technologies capable of protecting both the public and first responders.

Day three of our priorities series. Today's post is on promoting public safety.

People deserve to feel safe where they live, and that is made possible when neighbors know one another and the first responders who are protecting them.

My friends and I went to Nightmare on the Crow, a haunted trail hosted by a Greenfield property owner. This is definitely an experience! Before our expedition, we ate at Big Bore BBQ in Hanover. A great way to spend a Friday!

World Mental Health Day 2025 Find out about this year's World Mental Health Day campaign (10 October) and how you can get involved.

I have learned several ways of self-care. I do four intense one-hour workouts a week, eat a healthy gluten free diet, do not drink any alcohol and minimal to no caffeine, and I see a therapist regularly. You can find what works for you and a pathway to heal.
