Fun facts:
- The most unique higher education position I have held is serving as a Resident Director on Semester at Sea's Fall 2013 voyage.
- I became involved in OCPA when I moved back to Ohio after working in the field for 5+ years in California. I wanted to get connected with higher education professionals across the state and found OCPA to be a great way to start building those professional relationships.
- I have run 8 full marathons & qualified to run the Boston Marathon in 2016.
- I attended the Careers in Student Affairs Conference in 2006, which solidified my interest in the field and pushed me to apply for graduate programs in higher education and student affairs.
