Professional Interests I’m passionate about supporting students’ personal and professional development by fostering space for growth opportunities, self-advocacy, and autonomy. My professional interests include supervision of student staff and supporting student leadership development, crisis response, and student conduct.
One thing you like about working and/or living in Seattle I love going to coffee shops and trying the array of restaurants in the area, and I enjoy the variety of recreational activities the city has to offer. There’s always something going on!
One thing you appreciate about working with students at UW I’m impressed with how motivated and driven the UW students are. Along with their ability to foster inclusion in their communities and create space for positive experiences and learning opportunities.
