She was drawn to this organization after being deeply impressed by its commitment to holistic health and student well-being. Seeing how the institution pioneers innovative approaches to education and wellness, she knew it was the perfect place to make a meaningful impact. The dedication to supporting students academically, emotionally, and personally resonated deeply, and she was eager to contribute to a community that prioritizes inclusivity, growth, and overall success.

On a personal level, she is incredibly proud of co-raising two amazing identical twin stepdaughters, a journey that has brought immense joy, pride, and personal growth. Professionally, she is honored to have received the ACHS 2024 Staff Excellence in Student Engagement Award, recognizing her dedication to creating meaningful connections and empowering students.
She has also played a key role in co-creating impactful student programming, including the Semester Seminar Series, Welcome Week, and ACHS Spirit Week.
