Areas of Expertise:
I identify and recruit prospective students, communicate and build relationships with high school counselors and students, present information about Salve Regina, educate students about the admission process, read and review prospective student applications, and research target markets. My territories include Ohio, Michigan, Indiana, Illinois, northern Florida, Boston and Cambridge.
Personal Statement:
Prior to joining Salve Regina's admissions team, I worked in policy development roles for the U.S. House of Representatives Science Committee and with the National Academy of Sciences. I am an active volunteer in the community, serving on the Christian Education Board at my church, and spent many years supporting primary and secondary school parent teacher groups. I am originally from Cleveland, Ohio and as a military spouse, moved with my family multiple times, living in Rhode Island, Virginia, Florida and Italy. I took a brief hiatus from work to raise my two children, who are both attending college. I speak Italian fluently and live with my family in Middletown, Rhode Island. I am thrilled to join Salve Regina to help students through the admissions process and realize all that Salve and Newport has to offer.
