About Me: After graduating from undergraduate, I found myself spending four years volunteering with national and international government organizations. Since then I have worked with local government entities, nonprofit organizations focusing on providing support to underserved populations, and now seven years in admissions in higher education-- four at Augsburg. I feel I have gained various perspectives by living in multiple states and internationally. My husband and I live in the suburbs with our two sons, 5 and 13. I enjoy traveling--especially internationally--biking, watching movies, and anything related to trying new foods and new adventures!

Why I love Augsburg: Though I have been in higher education for seven years, I have noticed the incredible intentional focus Augsburg provides to its students. We connect and build relationships to help students meet their goals.
