I joined the Undergraduate Student Life team after I received my master's in higher and post-secondary education at Teachers College and found a home in New York City. Before Columbia, I worked in academic advising at the Fashion Institute of Technology and had a brief (but incredibly fun) career in fashion merchandising. I am passionate about experimental education and learning through experience, as well as getting to hang out with students all summer while planning orientation!
