1. Please introduce yourself and describe your role at UMB.
I am currently serving as the Acting Director of Student Affairs at Francis King Care Law. In my role, I work closely with student organizations and co-curricular teams. I assist in student event planning alongside student organizations, executing student travel plans, journal publications to Digital Commons, and planning and execution of events led by the Office of Student Affairs. In addition to these duties, I serve as a resource to our students in various matters related to their law school careers.
2. Why are you interested in serving on the Staff Senate?
I am interested in serving on Staff Senate for a second term as I have enjoyed my time as a senator. I have had the opportunity to work closely with many colleagues and help make a difference in the community through various community service efforts. I also enjoy serving as a resource to colleagues and being a conduit for sharing information.
3. What do you hope to accomplish during your term?
I hope to continue serving the West Baltimore community and work alongside the other wonderful senators to be a voice for our fellow staff members.
4. Describe your hobbies and interests outside of work.
Outside of work I love reading and strive to read over 50 books per year. I also enjoy all things crafting such as knitting, crocheting, and painting. I love spending time with my family including my 8-year-old nephew who is the light of my life.
