Communities I serve:

Undergraduate, Graduate, and Professional Students.

Why I love working with students:

I love accompanying students as they learn more about who they are, and it brings me joy to be a listening presence who can help mirror their strengths and encourage their dreams. I learn so much from students and enjoy hearing their stories. My love for working with students is grounded in the care and support I received from mentors on my own journey. It was often their words of support and their presence that enabled me to see bigger possibilities for myself. I hope to pay it forward through my work in Student Affairs.
