I’ve lived in the PNW my whole life and wanted a school that had the same greenery and fresh air, but with new people I could become friends with. At UO I get all of that while still staying close to friends and family in Washington!

My favorite thing to do is tell stories. Cool people, innovative products, a compelling narrative, I’m in. But making that story stick with someone is trickier and I love the problem-solving that comes with it. Every decision in the storytelling journey has a purpose and finding what works is the most fun part. With all of the latest digital platforms available, each one is a new place to constantly experiment with different ideas and see how an audience responds. Marketing blends my love of testing tech with telling tales.

I’m involved with the International Business and Economics club where I help run the marketing and communication channels. I also am involved in marketing for Connect@UO: a student-to-student networking organization hosting events for students to meet people on campus outside of their grade or major.
