Education:
Bachelor’s Degree in English
Iowa State University

What do I do at Iowa Western?
I play a big part in planning and coordinating the recruiting events on and off campus. You may see me at a college fair or two, but for the most part you will only see me when you come to visit us for a Reiver Visit Day, a Program Day, a Group Visit or a Tour of Campus. You may also see me if you come in to get registered for classes as I help new students plan their first semester schedule in the Admissions Office. 

IWCC Stuff

Favorite IWCC Moment:
A few of us advisors competed in a Dodge Ball tournament put on by our Colleges Against Cancer club. It was an absolute blast. We competed against several other teams of students and a team of Food Services staff members. We didn’t win, or even come close, but we held our own and had a ton of fun.

IWCC Insider Tip:
If you drive to campus make sure you get here about 15 minutes early as parking spaces fill up fast. Also, make sure you have a parking sticker on your back window. They are free, but without one you will get a $25 ticket!

Fun Stuff

What could you not live without?
My love bug convertible, especially during this time of year. There is no better way to relax after a busy day at work than to put the top down and feel the wind in your hair. It is so liberating! 

Community Service Involvement: 
This is the second year that I have served as the captain of our IWCC Relay for Life team. It is so much fun to see everyone come together to help raise money for such an awesome cause. I work with the most genuine, kind and downright awesome people. We all have so much fun hanging out while raising money for a good cause.

Hobbies and Interests: 
- Training for my first Half Marathon (just saying that makes me tired)
- Planting flowers and watching them grow
- Shopping

Favorite Sports Teams:
I graduated from ISU, but in order to get my family’s approval to go there I had to promise to remain a Hawkeye fan at heart. GO HAWKS!
