I am a North Carolina native, and prior to coming to UNC Asheville in 2016, I spent six years in the Boston area working with business students in Residence Life and Academic Advising. That work included teaching, leading co-curricular professional development programs, creating conferences, and supporting internship and career exploration opportunities.

I hold a Bachelor’s degree in Communications and a Master’s degree in College Student Personnel from Western Carolina University. I’ve found a great deal of satisfaction in roles that sit at the intersection of students, employers, and learning. In my current role as Associate Director for Employer Relations, I partner with local and regional employers to build recruiting strategies that connect UNC Asheville students and alumni with meaningful opportunities.

Outside of work, environmental sustainability is a core value of mine, I watch a lot of movies, and care more about the Carolina Panthers than I probably should. Feel free to stop by my office in Ramsey Library or send me an email, I’m looking forward to working with you.
