Biography

What would people be surprised to know about you?

I won the 2018 and 2019 National Gay Flag Football Championships with my DC team! 

My favorite thing about working in Admissions

I love working with students to help them better understand all the opportunities the University of Iowa has to offer, as well as all the academic pathways available to help them achieve their goals. 

Iowa City “Must Do and Must See” Locations

It's tough to have a bad meal in Downtown Iowa City. My recommendation: a Shorts burger paired with a movie at FilmScene. FilmScene offers blockbuster releases, as well as smaller indie, documentary, and international releases you won’t find elsewhere. Be sure to support our Hawkeye athletics as well! 

What makes Iowa such a great place?

I love how students run into friends from different academic disciplines all over campus. None of my roommates were in the same College and yet we were able to meet and become lifelong friends!
