A Little Bit About Me

I have a passion for helping students find their niche in higher education and beyond. Having grown up in five college towns across the Southeast and the Midwest, I truly feel most at home when I am on a university campus. Since graduating from Denison University in 2019, I have had the privilege of working with diverse student populations in multiple program and institution types, from community college to medical school. As the Assistant Director for Transfer Admission, I aim to reduce barriers, to prioritize belonging, and to offer clarity and support at every stage of the admission process. Ohio Wesleyan University's transfer students are truly a unique and invaluable part of our campus community.

I enjoy spending my free time with my family and my corgi, Granger. I am also an avid reader, never leaving my Kindle behind no matter where I go. My goal every year is to read over one hundred books! My husband and I also love to visit Walt Disney World and Universal Studios in Orlando, where I lived for about four years before returning to the Columbus area. We also enjoy camping (especially in Put-in-Bay), running, and binge-watching The Great British Bake-Off and Survivor.
