Maggie has lived in Sauk Centre her entire life, with the exception of two years in Bemidji while attending college and one year in Rogers. She graduated from Bemidji State University in 2024 with a Bachelor’s degree in Psychology and an Alcohol & Drug Counselor certification. Maggie was first introduced to the world of workers’ compensation through her own work-related injury, which required her to navigate the complexities of the system firsthand. This experience gave her a unique perspective on the challenges injured workers face and sparked her interest in the field. Coincidentally, this was also around the time she began pursuing her “law degree” through the highly educational documentary series Suits. Maggie enjoys learning the ins and outs of the workers’ compensation process, investigating evidence, and helping clients navigate their claims so they can focus on recovery. Outside of the office, Maggie enjoys spending time with her family—including her 17-year-old cat, Sparkle, and her 5-year-old black lab, Sadie— attending various sporting events, reading rom-com novels, listening to true crime podcasts, reminding her two younger brothers that she is the favorite (daughter, of course), and spending as much time outdoors as possible.
