Hello! I joined the ISSS team in May 2022 and have enjoyed getting to know the students, faculty, and staff here at DU! I moved to Denver from Chicago where I worked with international students and scholars at Northwestern University for 11 years. Prior to that, I lived in Washington, DC where I worked with the Fulbright Scholar Program at the Institute of International Education and earned a Master's Degree from George Washington University and a Bachelor Degree from American University. I have been to all 50 states in the U.S. and all 7 continents – although there are still many places I'd like to visit!
Hi! I joined University of Denver at the end of August 2023 and continue to enjoy the scenic views while advocating for and helping the international student population. I moved from East Texas, but I was born and raised in New England. While I have family still in the Northeast of the US, I enjoy going abroad as a vacation when possible. I have two Bachelor's and three minors from two schools in Connecticut. I am currently working on two master's and graduate certificate (part time). For fun, I like to go to concerts, explore the RTD Colorado area, and spend time with my three cats.

Hello! I joined the University of Denver in September 2023 and have really enjoyed working with the wonderful staff, students, and scholars that make up our ISSS community. I moved to Denver from Washington, DC where I completed my master’s program at The George Washington University and then went on to begin career in international education at the Embassy of Kuwait.
