I am very excited to serve on the Academic Advocate team to continue my passion of supporting students! As an advocate, I work to connect students with all available resources and ensure a clear plan is developed to reach graduation. I support students as they navigate the many challenges of higher education and grow both personally and academically. My goal as an advocate is to give students the care and tools they need to reach their individual goals here at UCF and beyond!
I received a Bachelor of Science in Communication Disorders from Auburn University and a Master of Science in Speech Language Pathology from the University of South Florida. For four years I served as a Speech Language Pathologist in the high school setting. In this role, I worked with students to develop and work on appropriate annual goals that led to greater independence and academic success.
Growing up in east Orlando, UCF always felt like a part of my home. From going to UCF baseball games as a kid, to eating at all of the many restaurants on University, to getting married at the Celeste Hotel, this campus has always held a special place in my heart.
