I really enjoy the opportunity to work directly with IFC & Panhellenic Council's to support their efforts in growing as leaders and moving our community in a positive direction. Additionally, I enjoy working directly with the graduate assistants and professional staff in our office in supporting their learning and growth as they advise and support our community, while also continuing to learn from them.

What is your dream vacation destination? Anywhere with mountains (to look at, not climb!) and would love to go to Ireland someday.
Favorite Greek Life Activity? My favorite experiences tend to revolve around philanthropy and recruitment events, which highlight the best of our membership, and large-scale events like Songfest and Greek Week, because these are the events that really make our communities feel like home.
