I have worked at °ÅÀÖÊÓÆµ as the School & Community Partnership Coordinator for the School of Learning & Teaching’s Forest Grove campus since March 2016. My role includes coordinating placements and placement processes for teacher candidates and practicum teachers, student teacher supervision, and fostering partnerships with K-12 schools and community organizations.

I earned dual Bachelor of Science degrees in Elementary Education and Liberal Studies: Math/Science from Rowan University in May 2009. I spent seven years teaching middle school math in Southampton Township Public School District in Southampton, NJ while completing a Master of Science degree in Educational Leadership from Delaware Valley University in May 2013 and obtaining administrative certifications. I then graduated from °ÅÀÖÊÓÆµâ€™s Education & Leadership PhD program in August 2022.

I am a proud member of the LGBTQ, neurodivergent, and chronic disability communities, as well as an ISTJ, Virgo, and lefty. My favorite things include my dogs, hiking in the beautiful PNW, mindfulness, and reading.
