I work with the incredible Student and Family Engagement team to plan and implement meaningful opportunities that support the newest members of our community to experience student life through large-scale events such as Orientation and Family Weekends. My higher education background is in Orientation, Admissions, Sorority and Fraternity Life and Veterans Upward Bound (TRIO). I love working with and for our students and am excited to continue my journey at Harvard!

I graduated from Central Michigan University with my Bachelors in Communication and Illinois State University with my Masters in College Student Personnel Administration. I have previously held positions at Ozarks Technical Community College, Illinois State University, Heartland Community College, and Sigma Kappa National Headquarters. In my spare time I enjoy cooking, reading, and exploring new places with my rescue dog Bandit!
