Profile

I decided to come back and work at Northland College because I wanted an opportunity to give back to the community. My time as a student at Northland gave me great respect for the power of this unique community coming together to nurture students in such an important time in their lives. The idea of being able to help create and maintain a diverse, healthy, and vibrant community makes it all seem like a dream! I am completely convinced that a major part of this is establishing a sense of place through a deep connection and understanding that comes before academics. I feel that bringing all of these components together can only be achieved by being a part of a liberal arts community such as Northland College.

I grew up in the Chequamegon Bay and cannot tear myself away from the great northwoods. I enjoy photography, checking in with Lake Superior as often as possible, and am an avid people watcher. My favorite things are the sound of laughter and the feeling of hugs. I can't wait to try to make a bit of difference here at Northland College.
