I have been an advisor since 2015. I started my career at the University of Kansas (rock chalk!); I spent five years there and was most recently at the University of Texas at Austin (hook 'em!) for four [remote] years. I have a bachelor's degree in journalism and a master's in communication; both from Missouri State University (go bears!). While in college, I was a residence hall front desk worker, a resident assistant, an orientation assistant and a teaching/research assistant - you could say that working with college students is my passion! I love what I do, and I'm so excited to be at Arizona State's Polytechnic campus (forks up!).
On a personal note, I live in Gilbert with my husband, son and our two dachshunds. We've been in Arizona for about two years; most of my life, I lived in the Midwest (NE > AR > MO > KS > TX > AZ). In my free time, I love reading, hiking (or anything outdoors, really), playing pickleball or golf, and hanging out with my family.
