About

I joined the Office of University Advancement in 2020, right after graduating from Northwest in December of 2019 with a B.A. in Organizational and Interpersonal Communication.  I am very excited for my new role as Annual Giving and Alumni Relations Specialist and am looking forward to working with our amazing donors and team members.

Throughout college, I stayed very involved with my major by being a member of ComCats and Lambda Pi Eta. I was also a communication intern for the University Office of Marketing and Communication, where I wrote press releases for the university website and alumni magazine.  I also spent much of my time staying involved with Northwest’s music program by playing trumpet in pep band, BMB, and wind symphony. I also took piano and organ lessons on campus, in addition to accompanying vocal and instrumental students.

My husband, Ethan, and I got married in August of 2019, and we are now currently living in Maryville with our cat, Penny. In our free time, we enjoy exercising, getting together with friends, and trying out new recipes!
