My favorite part about working with people is being able to listen to and connect with them. I find that attentive,
personal interactions foster the best understanding of what people need in terms of our care. Once a course of
care is settled upon, I love working together with people to reach their goals. At the end of the day, my own goal is to achieve the best fit to help people reach their full potential.

I’ve always loved helping people achieve their goals. My education journey started in college, at St. Xavier
University. There, I was a personal trainer working with people with spinal cord injuries and amputees who had
sports-specific goals. While obtaining a master’s degree in orthotics and prosthetics at Northwestern University, I
came to understand how deeply I enjoyed working with newer technology in my practice.

Ultimately, it’s working with people that I love most. My favorite part about working with people is being able to
listen and connect. At Limb Lab, I appreciate the space I’m given to forge genuinely personal interactions. I think
the people we assist feel at home here, and I think that improves outcomes.

I’m a big sports guy-football specifically-but I’m a big fan of all sports. I’ve always loved focusing on sports-
specific goals and have really enjoyed my time collaborating with the USA Sled Hockey team.

I first discovered the O & P field during the sophomore year of my undergraduate studies at the University of North Dakota. While I was on the path to becoming a physical therapist my sister told me that one of her friends just got accepted into the Master’s for O & P and told me to check it out. I then spent a couple of days shadowing and fell in love with the field. Since then, I completed my undergraduate studies and started at Century College for O & P.

The field of O & P is so unique which makes every day at work fun and exciting. Every client has different needs on their road to recovery. I love being able to see how our devices help improve our client’s well-being. Together we can work to meet other’s needs and reach goals they want to accomplish.

At Limb Lab we strive to give the patient back their mobility and functionality. I can achieve this by working with
my hands in order to make a prosthesis that improves a client’s life. Working with my hands has been a big part of my life over the last fifteen years while helping my father with his race cars and now working on my own race car. I look forward to my future with Limb Lab and feel humbled to be involved in such an impactful field.

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.
