Richfield Among 2021’s Healthiest Communities: U.S. News
More than half of the 500 healthiest communities had fewer COVID-19 cases per capita than the national average.

I was born and raised in Minneapolis. I graduated from the University of Minnesota in 2014 with a degree in political science and came away with four years of experience writing for the Minnesota Daily and other newspapers. In my first two years after college, I worked as a blogger, social media manager, freelance reporter and a public relations manager before I found myself at Patch.
I am a huge Minnesota sports fan. I was born one year after the Twins won their last World Series title, so I'd love it if they could win one sometime during my life...
I love working for Patch and having the opportunity to cover the things that matter in the state that I love.
