Why do you wish to be an Eagan Funfest Ambassador? I want to be an ambassador because I want to give back what the city has given to me. Also to help make a better and more healthier community.

Favorite Eagan Activities: Some of my favorite things about Eagan are the people, the education system. Funfest the Eagan sports, and the reliability of the city.

Candidate Information: I play fastpitch softball for the Minnesota Wolves, Eagan Volleyball, church choir, selected to be web leader and I'm on the speech team. I help out at veterans bingo, help out at the V.F.W.  Also, I take out an elderly lady’s garbage.
