What do you want to do?™
When I was a kid, I almost lost my hand in a farming accident, and spent a lot of time with surgeons and therapists as they worked to fix my hand. Two things came out of that experience that changed my life; the beginning of my life as a musician (I played guitar for my rehab), and second, my interest in orthopedic medicine and rehabilitation. Years later at Luther College, I was able to pursue both of my passions, singing in the Nordic Choir, and pursuing a degree in Biology. My advisor introduced me to the world of prosthetics and orthotics, and I immediately knew what I wanted to do with the rest of my life.
I started in the prosthetic business immediately following college as a technician making limbs, became a board certified practitioner and then a public speaker and educator, and am now living my ultimate dream of owning my own business. I come from a long line of farmers and entrepreneurs, and am so excited to follow in their footsteps to be the master of my own destiny. My hope is that when you come to Limb Lab, you feel important and valuable, that no matter the challenges that you are facing, you feel confident in the practitioner that works with you, and optimistic, and even inspired about your journey. There is nothing I love more than seeing people who I work with turn the tragedy of limb loss into the start of a beautiful life. There is nothing that we can’t accomplish together.
I love being part of a team and inspiring others to accomplish a common goal. After years of working in business management, I found the Prosthetic and Orthotic profession accidentally, but quickly realized it’s where l’m meant to be; sharing my leadership skills to help impact people’s lives for the better. I know the work I do behind the scenes ensures the best experience possible, and creates the greatest outcome and value for those we serve.
Whether you are a client, physician, payor, partner, or member of our team, when you connect with Limb Lab, I want you to know that you matter. We are all taking steps together to ensure the best possible outcome by utilizing the best technology at the best price. We collaborate with the brightest medical minds, develop successful care plans, pursue efficient and fair reimbursement all while offering emotional support and encouragement to our clients, their families and each other. At Limb Lab, when we say we are a family, we mean it. We are all in this together, so let’s stay connected and create a more beautiful world.
I came to Limb Lab – as a partner in the company and as its Chief Strategy Officer – after having spent about 15 years in private practice as a corporate attorney in Boston and Minneapolis. I was outside legal counsel to Limb Lab before joining the company in September 2018.
I focus on all aspects of executive strategy for Limb Lab. Amid all I do, I work to ensure that as the company grows, it remains steadfastly focused on improving the lives of its clients.
I am proud of my communities and humbled to support them. I chair the Council of St. Mark’s Episcopal Cathedral, in Minneapolis, and am a director of Graywolf Press, a literary publisher also based in Minneapolis. And I have served the Princeton University Alumni Association in numerous capacities, including as a member of the Executive Committee of the Alumni Council, President of the Princeton Association of New England, and President of the Princeton Club of Minnesota.
At Limb Lab, growth isn’t just about opening new clinics, it’s about expanding opportunities for patients, providers, and our team. As we add new locations and talented clinicians, we’re strengthening the way we deliver care while staying true to what matters most.
Innovation thrives when different perspectives come together. That’s why we’re committed to fostering diversity within our team and ensuring every patient, family, and employee feels seen, heard, and valued.
Our work is rooted in helping people move forward. That mission extends into the community. With the help of the Limb Lab Foundation, we invest in programs that create opportunities for those who need it most.
I have worked in orthotics and prosthetics for 14 years. The field has kept me on my toes every step of the way! I have also been fortunate to engage with wonderful people. I’m proud, and grateful, that I get the opportunity to help these people live fuller lives.
I find so many parts of the job rewarding: from the opportunity to be a cheerful voice on the phone for someone who is not initially excited to come see us; to lending a tissue and an ear to a tearful patient who is overwhelmed on their first day with a new device; to advocating for clients in conversations with their insurance carriers. I am so grateful to work in this field.
I enjoy spending time with my three girls, crafting, reading, spending weekends at the lake – and lots and lots of shopping.
I love working in orthotics and prosthetics! I learn every day, and I appreciate the privilege of helping people through circumstances that can be trying. I’m grateful for the trust our clients put in us.
When I’m not at Limb Lab, I enjoy crafting and walks with my husband Trevor and our dog Riley. And I love watching anything sports-related!
From a young age, I wanted to pursue a career that combined healthcare, biomechanics and engineering. While pursuing Occupational Therapy as an undergraduate, a prosthetist orthotist serendipitously entered the rehab gym to cast for a prosthesis. I then shadowed them for a day and my career path diverged. After graduating summa cum laude in rehabilitation, I completed my training in prosthetics and orthotics at Northwestern University.
I then worked in Boston, Massachusetts for 14 years, during which time I served on the board of the Ossur Women’s Leadership Steering Committee, was interviewed by CNN with Anderson Cooper, featured in the New York Times and NBC Boston News, served as the prosthetist for the national 100 and 200 meter women’s paralympic champion and casted Jake Gyllenhaal for movie set prosthetic legs for the motion picture Stronger. In 2022, I received my MBA from the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, specializing in digital marketing and data analytics.
I started working for Limb Lab after relocating to Minnesota in 2023, and I couldn’t be more excited. The knowledge, skill-sets, desire to produce high quality products, and collaborative teamwork with other practitioners in Limb Lab is exceptional. Patients’ lives and livelihoods are the center of my highly personalized and state-of-the-art approach to maximizing functional mobility.
I was born and raised in Minneapolis, Minnesota, but headed west at 18 years old to pursue a Bachelor’s degree in Marine Biology. For 13 years, I moved around the west coast and beyond pursuing my career in marine mammal research and animal training. Eventually, I moved back to Minnesota to be near my family and decided it was time to begin a new path. I fell into the O&P field as result of my increasing interest in the human body and biomechanics, as well as a love for working with my hands. I obtained my Masters in Orthotics and Prosthetics. My journey has only enhanced my desire to keep learning, something I feel is key to being successful in the O&P field.
One of the things I truly appreciate about Limb Lab is the thick atmosphere of learning here, whether discovering new technologies or gaining knowledge from our clients on their experiences living with an orthotic or prosthetic device. The conversation is continuous between practitioner and client, which leads to long-term relationships. This field is a combination of art and science. By using both of those approaches, my goal is to provide not just a device for my clients, but an improved quality of life.
The Amputee Coalition is a national organization that empowers people experiencing limb loss to achieve their full potential. Through education, support, and advocacy, the organization provides resources to amputees and the people who support them.
