Hi, I’m Dirk! I’m glad you’re here, and I’m running for State Senate so we can move SD49 forward, together.

I’ve spent my career in public service leading in complex systems — from the White House to Eden Prairie Schools — by breaking down walls and building bridges. I believe leadership isn’t about the loudest voice; it’s about the hard work of listening, finding common ground, and turning shared values into real results for our kids and our community.

This is our moment to step up. Let’s do good work, together.
