Biography

As an Assistant Director in Residential Communities & Housing, I oversee the Community Coordinator staff and facilitate department processes such as Community Coordinator recruitment, selection, and training. Additionally, I support and assist with programs within the Division of Student Life, connect with students around their residential experience, and enjoy attending Denison’s various traditions throughout the year.

Prior to becoming an Assistant Director in Residential Communities & Housing, I served as the Community Coordinator for North Quad, West Quad, and Crawford Hall beginning in January 2022.

Prior to working at Denison, I was a full time Area Coordinator at Westminster College, where I had previously earned my M.Ed. while serving as a Graduate Assistant Residence Director and Women’s Lacrosse Coach.

I live in Granville with my partner Tyler and our dog Bea. My favorite experiences (so far!) at Denison have been the D-Day concerts, Senior Soirees, and Community Advisor trainings I have been able to attend.

Degree(s)
M.Ed., Westminster College; B.A. Davis & Elkins College
