I facilitate connections in the intersection of information, communities, and higher education by working with organizations, faculty, and students to develop opportunities that have high impact. In my role with the Engaged Learning Office, in partnership with colleagues and faculty, I recruit, develop, and evaluate projects for UMSI client-based courses. I also facilitate experiential learning and service engagement opportunities for students, including Alternative Spring Break, Fall Break, UMSI Service Week and I work with the A2DataDive and other student organizations.

I am a graduate of the MSI program (2012), and believe deeply in the School of Information's mission and values. I am motivated by change that is created in an innovative workplace that values continuous improvement for the betterment of all.

I live in Ann Arbor with my husband, toddler, dog and cat, and enjoy long walks and yoga.
