MEET PAUL UTKE

I grew up in a small North Dakota community where early lessons in hard work shaped my future. A great family and good friends make for a strong community and a good life. These early experiences were the foundation for my future careers and activities.

For fifteen years I worked with Mack Truck dealers, gaining valuable insight into the needs and challenges faced by professionals in the transportation industry.

My second career was as a small business owner. We owned and operated a retail hardware and equipment rental store for sixteen years. In addition, I am a licensed Insurance Agent and a Certified Legal Videographer. Throughout all of my professional rolls, I have enjoyed working closely with individuals from diverse backgrounds, which has consistently shaped my approach to client service and collaboration.

I served seven years on the Park Rapids City Council and participated in numerous local and regional organizations, offering both time and leadership.

My wife Nancy and I have two adult daughters. For 33 years, we've appreciated living and working in Park Rapids.

I'm committed to advocating for our district's values and needs in St. Paul and I am truly grateful for the opportunity to represent our area.
