What I love about Whitman: I love how Whitman provides a multitude of vastly different opportunities for its community members. Through experiential learning and support, Whitman helps students, faculty, and staff to find connectedness in unique and powerful places.

Why I enjoy working in Admissions: Experiencing the passion of our diverse pool of applicants is a privilege. From start to finish, the admissions process can be exciting, gratifying, and downright inspiring. I’m proud to play a small role in helping to assemble an incoming class that can, in so many ways, enrich the Whitman community.

Favorite Activities in Walla Walla: Going on walks with my family - Hanging out downtown - Exploring local craft beers - Playing golf at Wine Valley.
