Bio

I grew up in Albany, New York, and went to a small liberal arts college where I studied Psychology and Math. I began my admission career at Colby College and recently made the move to the West Coast. I’m grateful to be in sunny California and to have the opportunity to continue to support students through the admission process and their higher education journeys. Outside of work, I enjoy going to concerts, playing basketball, reading, and socializing with friends.

Why USC?

USC has so much to offer to all students from around the world, right here in the heart of Los Angeles. The opportunities USC provides are endless—incredible academic programs, a vast alumni network, sunny weather and great student life, just to name a few. Something that sets USC apart from other institutions is the strong sense of community and school pride. I truly believe anyone can find a home here on campus.

Admission Advice

I believe that college is what you make of it, and everyone ends up where they are supposed to be. Take advantage of the resources available to you and enjoy the experience and people around you.

Also, be sure to tell us everything about yourself when submitting your application! We want to get the best sense of who you are through your application, so don’t be afraid to share any hobbies, family responsibilities, personal interests, or anything of that sort.
