Hi there! I am a Theatre Arts major finishing up my Bachelor of Arts with concentrations in Teaching and Playwriting. I aspire to teach high school English and Drama, to direct, and to be a playwright. I would also love to work on reforming public education (TK-12) and working to better incorporate and utilize the arts in academia. Thank you for reading!

These past two summers, I have been given the incredible opportunity to work with Camp Hope America, an organization for children and teens who have been impacted by domestic violence and trauma. Each week I've spent with the camp has been difficult, heartbreaking, and heartwarming. It has also confirmed my passion to work with youth.

I am probably obsessed with music, though I have no musical talents myself. I don't know what I would do without Spotify! I have incredibly eclectic and often unpopular (not hipster, I'm talking country and showtunes!) taste. I love oldies (60s on 6 is my jam, for those who have Sirius), some pop, some alternative, and basically bits of everything.

My guilty pleasure is trash TV. I shouldn't name specifics but...Dance Moms, RHOBH, Bachelor in Paradise. The damage is done. My favorite series is Friends, which I will never call trash.

My favorite book is A Mind at a Time, by Dr. Mel Levine, and I love reading up on the psychology of learning!

And, in case you can't tell, I love food and find it to be extraordinarily photogenic. I'll leave you with that, and with this sweet dose of sunshine from my littlest love, Shyanne! :)

Outside of school, I spend most of my time with family and the friends who have earned that title. I am proud to be "Auntia" to two beautiful, brilliant, and hilariously-headstrong girls named Savanna (almost six), and Shyanne (sixteen months). I am beyond-thrilled to announce that another little niece will be arriving in January! I have had quite a journey with faith, and I have recently found my home in a church that truly models acceptance, all-inclusive love, and even abundant humor. Ultimately, I believe in love (don't we all), and hope to live and lead with love.

I love travel (again, don't we all?). In the Spring of 2016, I studied abroad in Wales! Experiencing education in another country opened my eyes and broadened my horizons. It was an invaluable experience, and inspired me even more to be an educator!
