Hi, I’m Danielle

Proud to call western Wisconsin home

Since settling in St. Croix County with my husband, Mark, in 2009 and starting Homestead Veterinary Clinic in Baldwin in 2011, I’ve embraced this area of Wisconsin as my forever home. I have thrived in the environment of my business’s rapid growth and dedicated myself to giving back to the community that has given me so much. 

Now I want to take what I have to offer to Madison. 

The roots of my desire to solve difficult problems are founded in my professional training as a veterinarian. We are trained with a set of tools to use, but the final result also depends on solid communication and working together with my clients to make the best decisions we can for their pets. 

I have observed our current representation in Madison pass legislation written by their wealthy corporate donors instead of listening to their constituents.

It’s time for our representatives in Madison to once again represent voters, not donors; to use tools like research, data, and expert opinion; and to start working together to get things done.

That’s why I’m running to represent you in Wisconsin’s 28th Assembly District.

The experience to lead

  • Veterinarian, 2002 - present

  • Small business owner, 2011 - present

  • Western Wisconsin Health Board of Directors, January 2015 - April 2023

  • Northwoods Technical College Veterinary Technician Program Advisory Board Member, 2018 - present

As a veterinarian and a small business owner, I am a trained and practiced problem solver. I’m ready and eager to create meaningful change.

What you can expect from me

Voters should know where candidates stand on the issues. That’s why I’ll host public listening sessions, attend debates, and accept invitations to speak at community forums. You deserve the opportunity to share your concerns and get your questions answered.

When I’m elected, I’ll continue to host listening sessions, and I’ll accept invitations to attend forums as my schedule allows. The way I see it, community engagement is an essential part of effective representation.
