About Me

I graduated from Miami University in 2019 with a Bachelor of Science in business marketing and began my career at a small marketing agency in Cleveland, Ohio. I worked with a wide variety of clients in industries such as finance technology, leadership consulting, tools and fasteners and more. In 2019, I was hired as an assistant director at Kent State University in the alumni office, helping facilitate marketing strategy for alumni events and programs. I was promoted to associate director of communications within the Division of Philanthropy and Alumni Engagement in 2023, where I collaborate with other team members to develop and implement strategic alumni engagement and solicitation plans. I also serve as a project manager for several areas of the university, acting as a liaison with colleges and divisions to advise and assist with alumni and donor communications.

What I Love About Kent State

Like many others, the black squirrels are a highlight for me. I am also very proud to be a part of the Golden Flash community. I am always inspired by the incredible work being done by our students, faculty, staff and alumni!

Fun Facts

I have a very spirited cat named Jonah who keeps things interesting at home.
