About me:

Degrees earned:

Bachelor’s in Humanities with a focus on Psychology & Spanish

College I graduated from:

Washington State University

Why I work at CSF:

I work at CSF because I genuinely enjoy supporting students and families on their journey within the world of higher education. I love being able to discuss questions or concerns about academic and career exploration, financial aid eligibility and be able to learn about new adversities and challenges current students are facing. It’s a privilege to be able to collaborate with students and offer guidance and direction as needed. My goal when connecting with students is to develop an individualized rapport while alleviating any stress or worry, they may have. In addition, offering helpful solutions and making sure they’re aware of all the options and resources available to them. I want to encourage students to take up as much space as they want, remind them of their goals and passions and motivate them to explore new challenges and opportunities of growth.

What I enjoy doing outside of work:

Outside of my work I enjoy treating myself because self-love is the best love. I decompress best with my family, friends and lil dawg Luna. I love to build Legos, listen to music, occasionally binge watch shows/movies, plan future vacations, watch Tik Toks and try new food spots!
