Andrea's commitment to providing substance use disorder services, was initially  inspired by her  mother's diagnosis of cirrhosis of the liver as a result of alcoholism, and untimely death at the age of fifty-three. This prompted Andrea's curiosity involving the development, duration, and treatment of alcoholism.  Andrea would go onto struggle with her own addiction. However, she was able to achieve sobriety and is in long-term recovery. It was in early recovery she discovered the desire to assist others to achieve recovery.

I joined this field with a desire to help people get what they deserve and fulfill their potential. I am privileged to be in a position to watch as people grow, change, and begin to find joy and freedom in their lives. I wanted to work in this field after watching the cycle of addiction and untreated mental illness negatively impact people in my family and community.

Bryan has 25 years of personal recovery. He is motivated by his own experiences and those of his immediate family and extended family.  I want to see the stigma that accompanies a diagnosis of addiction or mental illness eliminated, people with addiction or mental illness are not bad or lazy or difficult, they are suffering with brain illnesses and they can be effectively treated.  It is a joy and a privilege  to witness people grow and change and rebuild their lives. I have a BA and LADC from the University of Minnesota.  Married to wife Becky for 24 years.  Two wonderful cats. Enjoy cooking, playing music, being with family and friends.
