For the entirety of my career I have been privileged to engage with individuals in their pursuit of additional educational and enrichment offerings. I have worked primarily in higher education in roles such as admissions, advising, program administration, and grant management. I hold a B.A in Psychology from UConn, a M.A. in Nonprofit Administration from John Carroll University, and an M.S. in Organizational Leadership from Quinnipiac University.

What do you enjoy most about Greater Hartford?

The area has always felt like home despite not being a native Connecticut resident. It is a great place to raise a family and fun fact I got both engaged and married within the city of Hartford limits!

What quote best represents your personal philosophy?

"Education is not preparation for life; education is life itself." - John Dewey

Are you involved in any volunteer activities?

I currently serve on the Board of the Junior League of Hartford. We are a nonprofit organization that empowers women to be civic leaders in their communities.
