Education

• B.A. in studio art, Salve Regina University

What's My Why?

From my first campus visit to walking across the stage at graduation, I have always felt at home at Salve. I grew up near a coastal town in Maryland surrounded by the arts – whether it be visual or performing. At Salve, I studied studio art as well as cultural and historic preservation, which allowed me to fully immerse myself in the arts community here in historic Newport.

I developed a passion for assisting students with the admissions process throughout my time as a student ambassador. I thrive on meeting students and learning about their passions, interests and what makes them unique. This has led me down a path in higher education as an admissions counselor, where I continue to help prospective students find their home at Salve just as I did.
