I work in the president's office, supporting Dr. Panchanthan's efforts to shape the future of technology and innovation at Arizona State University and beyond. I serve as his strategic connector and operational catalyst. I bring decades of experience at ASU working across departments and leaders to advance large-scale university initiatives—most recently as a member of the University Design Institute, and previously within the Knowledge Enterprise. My deep institutional knowledge, collaborative leadership style, and ability to translate bold ideas into action ensure success.
I served on the Board of Directors of the National Organization for Research Development Professionals (NORDP) from 2019 until 2023 during unprecedented growth in membership and through a transition to hybrid work environments post-COVID. I am a Returned Peace Corps Volunteer (Lesotho '97 - '99) and am a former Editor in Chief of the magazine of the Association for Women in Science (AWIS). I am a member of the Association of Proposal Management Professionals (APMP) and certified at the second of three levels. I am a founding member of the Knowledge Enterprise Diversity, Equity, Inclusion and Belonging Task Force (2021 – 2023).
