About

I grew up in the small town of Sunfield, Michigan, I love all things Michigan! I love that you get all four seasons and love most of them equally. I went to Spring Arbor University and graduated in 2020. After I graduated, I moved to Wisconsin where I worked as a Hall Director at Concordia University-Wisconsin and earned my master's degree. In that time, I also got married to my husband Ryan! I enjoyed the experience I had over the four years I was there and wanted to continue working in higher education and specifically as a Hall Director, but I wanted to move back closer to family. Which is what brought us here to Taylor!

I love being able to work with college students on a daily basis. My favorite part is to see them grow as an individual both professionally and personally. I enjoy being there when they need someone to talk to and want to make sure they know they belong.

In our free time, Ryan and I enjoy doing things outside like kayaking, biking, camping, and hiking. I'm also an indoorsy person who enjoys a good book, watching Gilmore Girls, and a puzzle here and there.
