I am originally from California, but have called Colorado home since 2007 and have worked for CU Boulder for more than 10 years. I am passionate about student engagement and helping students find their community and voice during their time on campus. This can take shape in a variety of ways, such as campus events, student leadership opportunities and involvement in student organizations. My advice to all students is not be afraid to try something new. You never know what will become a passion of yours, who you will meet or what you will learn by stepping outside your comfort zone! When I am not hanging out on campus and at work, you can generally find me on a hiking trail, on a snowboard or on a mountain bike exploring Colorado with my family.
