About Jamie

I am a storyteller and editor passionate about advancing equity and inclusion, amplifying marginalized voices, and fostering community. I’ve worked in advertising, corporate and nonprofit communications, and food marketing, where I fell in love with Minnesota’s local co-ops and food system. I currently serve on the board of directors at Gender Justice.

I am a bookworm, foodie, artist, and plant mom. In my free time, you’ll find me nerding out with friends and trying new restaurants with my wife.
