I am a Senior Academic Advisor in the College of Science and Engineering at the University of Minnesota. Prior to my work in student affairs, I spent over five years working with families and individuals in emergency shelter and supportive housing settings in Minnesota. Inspired by my social services background, I am committed to creating and sustaining a work environment that takes advocates for the holistic needs of our diverse student body.
