BioJill is the oldest girl in a family of nine. Growing up in the midwest she was raised to be a hard worker and to value her community. When she first moved to La Crosse Jill taught English and Citizenship classes to Hmong adults while raising her two children Zoe and Josh. In 2004 Jill decided to run for the La Crosse County Board and served her local community as a member on the board for eight years. Friends and supporters encouraged Jill to run for the 95th Assembly seat in the Special Election of 2011. That November Jill was honored to be elected and has proudly represented the people of the Coulee Region ever since.
