I work at the intersection of research and practice, helping students, educators, and organizations navigate postsecondary pathways with greater clarity and intention. My approach combines systems thinking with practical strategies that support informed decision-making and student success.
My professional experience spans K-12 education, higher education, nonprofit organizations, and student support services. Working across these settings has given me insight into the different systems, relationships, and decisions that influence postsecondary opportunity.
K-12 Education: Postsecondary readiness, educator collaboration, and student support
Higher Education: Academic advising, admissions, recruitment, multicultural student affairs, student success program coordination, student organization advisement, and student development
Nonprofit Organizations: Postsecondary programming, community partnerships, and educational access
Across these settings, my work has included program development, cross-sector collaboration, organizational strategy, and systems improvement. These experiences have reinforced my belief that improving postsecondary opportunity requires strong partnerships, thoughtful strategy, and systems that work for students.
My work combines direct support with systems-level strategy to strengthen postsecondary readiness, access, and success.
