I am originally from Rochester, NY, but have lived in Ithaca for over 15 years. I received a bachelor’s degree in Natural Sciences from Daemen University in Amherst, NY and a master’s in Higher Education and Student Affairs from Canisius University in Buffalo, NY. Before working within career development, I held professional roles in college residential life, student engagement, and leadership development. I am a highly relational professional that puts students at the heart of my work. I love helping them make meaning of their experiences in order to find their strengths and passions. In my spare time, I enjoy spending time exploring Ithaca with my family, cooking, gardening, crafting, and getting to the beach for vacation.
