A life-long educator, I have extensive experience working with students of all ages. I obtained my teaching certification with an emphasis on History from St. Norbert College before obtaining my master's degree in Student Personnel Administration in Higher Education from Concordia University Wisconsin. In May of 2025, I graduated from Arizona State University with a terminal (Ed.D) degree in Educational Leadership and Innovation. I taught middle school social studies for 4 years and have a strong desire to assist students who may struggle with social studies related concepts as well as geography skills. I also enjoy assisting students with essay editing and navigating the writing process. I currently work in higher education and enjoy building trust and rapport with students so they can be the best possible versions of themselves.

In my free time, I enjoy traveling- and have been fortunate enough to live in and travel to numerous countries. Domestically, my interests include attempting to visit each of our country's beautiful national parks. On an average weekday, you can find me hiking, cooking, reading, exploring the area around me for local coffee shops, or attending a nearby sporting event.
