About:

Born and raised in Stillwater I grew up loving the outdoors, music, and art. After high school I ventured north and attended University of Minnesota Duluth for graphic design and photography. Living in Duluth was the only time that I ever lived outside of the St. I think the river valley will always be my home. My favorite places are either among the pine trees or next to water. You can always find me next to a bonfire, on the river in our 1970 Boston Whaler, or at a concert. My wonderful husband Dan shares the same love of the outdoors and music. We now live in the small town of Bayport with our dog Roman, and our crazy cat Mr. Wayne. The idea of Minnesota Made started the summer of 2013 when I was unemployed and attended a Trampled by Turtles and Atmosphere concert in Duluth with a group of friends. We saw so many Minnesota shirts! Some of the designs were great, but the quality of shirts needed some help. Then I thought, I could do this. I could create some unique designs on quality clothing while giving Minnesotans apparel they can wear with pride. Not too long after that I started creating designs that Minnesotans could connect with and found high quality apparel that was made in the USA. I still felt as though there was something missing from the shirts and wanted to do something more. I wanted people who purchased a piece of apparel feel special. That is why today you can find hidden quotes on the inside of all t-shirts. For many years I had created custom shirts for my husband as gifts and would put hidden messages on the inside of the them. Now, I am able to put hidden inspirational messages on the inside of the t-shirts and share them with a lot of people. Today, Minnesota Made is a locally owned and operated apparel company rooted in the St. All business is now run out of our NEW SHOP in the heart of downtown Stillwater. Each design is designed and screen-printed in Minnesota with every T-shirt having a hidden quote made to empower and inspire and all of the apparel is proudly using sustainable and USA apparel.

The love I’ve witnessed over the last week has been incredible. I never could have imagined the doors that would open when I began creating these pins. The outpouring of support + love for our beautiful state is from everywhere! Literally everywhere! We have received orders from just about every state. Including Alaska! Washington, Arizona, Oklahoma, Florida, New York, New Jersey, California, Connecticut, Illinois, Colorado, Massachusetts, Rhode Island, Ohio, Michigan, Idaho, and these are just orders being sent out today!

The amount of generosity, compassion, and willingness to stand up for others reminds us how powerful kindness is. Please know that your support matters more than we can put into words.

❤️ 100% of the proceeds from our pin sales are going directly to local families in need. Every pin represents care, solidarity, and real help reaching those who need it most. We have a list of families and organizations we’re supporting, and we’re always open to expanding it—if you have suggestions, we would love to hear them.

With every button order, you get an equal number of buttons for free – because MN Love is meant to be shared.

With love from Minnesota 💛
