Best Part of My Job: Journeying with students as they find meaning and purpose in their lives while navigating their academic career.
​
What students can reach out for: I am here to answer any questions for students exploring majors, minors, certificates, general education courses, and other campus resources. I can also help with questions about campus policies and procedures (students may also need to connect with their departmental advisor if not in Exploratory Studies).
​
Supporting RASI: I came from a small town outside of Peoria, and the transition to UIUC felt like a big one...so many people from all over the state, nation, and world, and it was definitely more urban than I was used to. Having a sense of belonging and purpose was crucial for my success here, and I am exited to see the connections and community that RASI is cultivating! It is an honor to be the Staff Advisor!
