As a career services professional in the School of Public
Health, I provide career coaching and support to undergraduate and graduate
students and alumni. Prior to joining the
School of Public Health, I consulted directly with graduate and professional
students in the O’Neill School of Public and Environmental Affairs. Throughout my
career, I have served in a variety of student service leadership roles including
student recruitment, engagement, experiential learning and career services.
Holding degrees in Music Education and Higher Education
Administration from the University of Nebraska and the University of Wisconsin,
I began my career working with talented high school musicians in a nonprofit
arts organization, then found my passion guiding college students in career exploration
and development, student leadership, and professionalism. I have worked and taught in career services
and student affairs from small, private liberal arts settings to large public
institutions. One of the most rewarding parts of my work is partnering with
students as they discern their values and interests and find meaningful
experiences and careers to match. Truly
rewarding!
For fun, I love hanging with my spouse and four kids, hiking
and road tripping to new places, and watching IU women’s basketball.
