Who are you? Tell us about yourself.
I am currently the Mayor of Oshkosh, Wisconsin. After raising two children as a single mom, I went back to school and earned bachelor’s and master’s degrees in urban planning from UW Oshkosh and UW Milwaukee. After getting my degrees, I became a neighborhood activist and co-founded the Middle Village Neighborhood Association. Friends and family urged me to run for office, and in 2016 I was elected to the Oshkosh Common Council. In 2018 I was appointed Deputy Mayor of the City, and then in 2019 I became the first woman directly elected Mayor by a vote of the people of Oshkosh. I was reelected in 2021. My reputation is for being responsible, reliable, and results oriented. I’ve taken pride in opening up our city’s citizen boards and commission to people who traditionally backed away from civic activity, and I led the effort to create a Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion Committee to help ensure that we hear all voices. I reside in Oshkosh with my husband and two cats.
