Senior Associate Director of Admissions
I love education. I love talking about it and I love seeing students excited about choosing a College that is the perfect fit for them. I have worked in Admissions for 12 years assisting families through the admissions process. This isn't just a job for me, it's my passion.
Outside of work I'm a mom. My second first job. I like to travel, listen to music, exercise, cook and spend time with family and friends. Basically, I love life.
