Background

Hometown: Pelzer, SC

About Me: I have worked in higher education since 2016 in various roles ranging from admissions, recruitment and advising, to financial aid. My passion centers around student success, and I earnestly believe education changes lives and helps change people’s stories. I loves to be a small part in laying the foundation for students. I am married and have three kids. I am a huge college football fan and love to talk college ball. 

Favorite Quote: I've learned that people will forget what you said, people will forget what you did, but people will never forget how you made them feel.

Advice to Students: Set goals. Have faith in yourself and know that you can succeed. When facing obstacles just continue to make progress to the ultimate goal. Obstacles make the journey worth it and helps to build perseverance. 


Challenge the conventional. Create the exceptional. No Limits.
