About Me: I have spent most of my professional career working in higher education and have a strong commitment to creating equitable access to education for all students. As a first generation college student, I navigated the undergraduate college search process on my own and saw firsthand, some of the challenges with accessing educational opportunities. For the past 18 years, I've worked in a variety of institutions, with a diverse group of students and programs, and at both the graduate and undergraduate degree level. I am passionate about student support and about helping prospective students make a smooth transition from application to enrollment.

Outside of work, my husband and I are proud parents to two kids (ages 13 and 15) and enjoy spending time with family. I am one of 6 kids and love having my siblings over for family dinner and game nights. I also enjoy hiking, running, reading, and yoga. (I don't sit still for long)!
 

Why I love Augsburg: Augsburg's commitment to diversity, equity, inclusion, and belonging make our university unique. Students are at the forefront of all decisions and the staff and faculty here are truly invested in student success. Students receive an academically strong educational experience, have incredible opportunities for experiential learning, and are building a higher level of cultural competency throughout their studies. This is a supportive space to challenge yourself to grow- personally, professionally, and academically!
