Background
Hometown: Columbia, SC
About Me: I am a Carolina girl who loves horseback riding and fishing. I also love traveling. In undergrad, I studied abroad at the University of Kent and lived in Canterbury, U.K. which opened my eyes to new cultural experiences. Outside of work, I spend time with my Maltese, Jax, as well as family and friends. My ultimate academic goal is to achieve a terminal degree and work in a field that positively impacts my community.

Advice to Students: Take advantage of the opportunities that your university has to offer you. Challenge yourself to reach new goals academically and experientially. And don't forget to check your student email!
