    About Me

    I grew up in Bainbridge, OH (45 minutes from Kent), with a passion for stories, languages and creative problem-solving.  Fittingly, I earned my Bachelor’s degree in English – Creative Writing and French from The Ohio State University.

    When I decided to further my education, I agonized for months over which graduate program was the right fit for me.  I chose to pursue my MBA at Indiana University – Kelley School of Business, and I’m committed to helping other students find their program fit and to embark on a fulfilling professional journey at the graduate level.

    What I Love About Kent State

    I love the vibrant campus culture and the sense of community here at Kent State.  Go Flashes!

    Fun Facts

    • I taught abroad in Clermont-Ferrand, France for eight months, and I am fluent in French.

    • Rockne's fried chicken tender salad has been one of my favorite meals ever since I was a kid. Check out the one in downtown Kent or nearby Streetsboro!
