Professional Interests Retention and engagement particularly among student-athletes really interests me. I’m also interested in career discernment and services as well as higher education law.
One thing you like about working and/or living in Seattle I love being in a place with such wide diversity from the people, to the neighborhoods, to the events and activities. I’ve lived in the Seattle area my whole life and still find ways to meet new people and explore different parts of the city. I also love that the mountains and ocean are both a short drive away.
One thing you appreciate about working with students at UW The students we work with at UW are incredibly bright and intelligent. They challenge me to think differently and to strive for excellence in the work that I do in student leadership. They consistently demonstrate a high standard for quality and care in their student leadership roles which I love as well.
