In the academy, the world, and the woods. These are places you’ll find me, exploring, listening, and learning. 

I have these qualifications:

• Experience creating and managing study abroad programs for over 10 years
• Experience providing international exchange student support for 7 years
• Experience teaching ESL and writing for over 5 years
• Experience living in 6 countries and traveling in 6 continents

Since 2023, I have served in the role of Assistant Director of Education Abroad at the University of California, Riverside (UCR) in Southern California.

I have lived in multiple countries, including Kenya, England, and South Korea, though I feel most at home in California. I identify as an immigrant, Third Culture Kid, am a language geek, and enjoy dirt on my boots (Half Dome; Mt. Whitney; the Grand Canyon). Woo, Positivity, Communication, Activator, and Ideation are my five strengths, according to Gallup.
