I'm Shelley Lenz.

Candidate for ND House District 37 · Dickinson

Bringing the problem-solving mindset of a veterinarian and small business owner to state government.

For nearly twenty years, I've owned and operated State Avenue Veterinary Clinic in Dickinson. I've spent years hiring employees, training future professionals, and navigating the rising cost of healthcare. The challenges North Dakota families face aren't abstract to me—they're part of my work every day. That's why I'm running: to bring practical solutions to workforce shortages, healthcare costs, and opportunities for the next generation.
