A little about me… 

I am a proud Cincinnati native who has come back home after living across the country and the world. I enjoy traveling, reading, sewing, cheering for the Cincinnati Bengals, and spending time with my family and friends.

I have worked in higher education since my undergraduate years as a student employee at the University of Montana. From the moment I first became involved in Honors education, I discovered my passion for helping students learn, grow, and explore new heights. Throughout my career, I have been deeply engaged in undergraduate research and am excited to support students as they pursue their own scholarly interests through the University Honors Program’s research opportunities.

My own research journey took me abroad to Greece after graduate school, where I studied geographical barriers to education for rural students. Traveling and immersing myself in new cultures has been both personally and professionally transformative, and I am passionate about supporting students to experience their own growth through international travel and global learning opportunities.
