About Me

I am originally from Michigan, growing up on the shores of Lake Michigan in a small town called Holland. I was educated at the University of Notre Dame where I majored in Liberal Studies and received a minor in Energy Studies. This is my first year within the Great Hearts network. Prior to joining Great Hearts I worked as the Citizen Outreach Director for a national nonprofit organization and managed the Chicago offices. I enjoy hiking, golfing, and yoga. The picture above was taken at the Lily Ponds of Lincoln Park, one of my favorite places to read on a summery Sunday evening.
