As the Director for Inclusion and Community Engagement, I am invested in creating a more inclusive Minnesota Historical Society (MNHS). My work encompasses a systems approach to change. Developing an internal and external strategy for Diversity and Inclusion allows me to work across all functions of MNHS, providing inclusive programming, developing authentic and sustainable relationships with diverse communities, increasing the cultural competency of staff at MNHS through creating learning and development opportunities, and working to create a more diverse staff at all levels of MNHS through recruitment and retention activities.
