Emily grew up in in tight-knit community of Slinger, surrounded by small family-owned farms and Pike Lake State Park. Growing up in Wisconsin, her parents raised her with the values that still guide her today: hard work, honesty, and the belief that neighbors should look out for each other.Today, Emily and Nick are raising their three children in Outagamie County. They juggle school, sports, and family meals around the kitchen table just like their neighbors, while also navigating the complexities of raising children with special needs and chronic health conditions. That lived experience drives Emily’s fight for affordable healthcare, strong schools, and safe, welcoming communities for every family in the Fox Valley.
Emily is running for State Senate because she knows our district deserves steady, accountable leadership that shows up and gets the job done. She believes in strong schools, safe streets, stable costs — and a system that’s fixed, not rigged. Above all, she believes in the beauty and potential of the Fox Valley and will fight to make it a place where everyone can live, work, and thrive without fear.
