Since September 2024.

What did you do before joining the Mount?
I graduated undergraduate with a double-bachelor’s in psychology and criminal justice. I’m currently continuing my education to get my master’s and licensure in marriage and family therapy. I’ve spent past 5+ years in higher education enrollment management assisting with facilitating campus visits.

What is your favorite vacation destination?
A tie between Aruba and Puerto Rico!

Why did you decide to join the admission team?
I have an inherent passion for collaboration and problem solving. Through that I found that connecting with families and helping them throughout the college process was and continues to be the most meaningful thing to me. It also aligns with the skills and abilities needed to do what I want to do as a family therapist!

What is your advice for succeeding in college?
Never get complacent! There is always a way to rise above.

How do you spend your free time?
I spend the bulk of my free time catching up on current events, hanging out with friends, playing video games, and producing music!
