I graduated in May 2026 with a Bachelor of Arts in Communication Studies from the University of Puget Sound, with a focus on organizational communication, media strategy, and persuasion. I'm energetic, organized, and at my best in fast-paced, high-stakes environments — whether that's coordinating a 200-person event, managing a landscaping crew across three states, or pitching a new marketing strategy to company leadership. Outside of work, I'm genuinely passionate about the outdoors, cinema, games, and entertainment — and I bring that enthusiasm into every role I take on.
