About me

I am a proud first-generation college student, turned student affairs professional, who is committed to helping students identify their interests, explore their identities, and pave their own futures. I received my B.A. in sociology and organizational communication from the University of Wisconsin - Eau Claire. Afterwards, I earned my M.A. in leadership in student affairs from the University of St. Thomas - Minnesota. When I'm not working directly with the McNair Scholars summer program supporting our exceptional scholars, I serve as a career counselor in CEHD Career Services. If you're a CEHD student or recent alum who's interested in receiving career support, I encourage you to schedule an appointment with me!

Outside of work, I'm a committed CrossFitter who enjoys volleyball and distance running on the side (I ran my first marathon in October 2021). Other than fitness, I love being on the water, petting as many dogs as possible, and trying out new restaurants and coffee shops here in the Twin Cities.
