I am a full-time higher education professional currently working as a Budget and Planning Analyst for the Utah System of Higher Education. I am also a graduate of the Educational Leadership and Policy Master’s Program at the University of Utah with an emphasis in College Affordability and College Access. I am passionate about equitable college access, college affordability, and student-centered initiatives and advocacy. I have 10+ years’ professional experience working in a variety of settings from institutions of higher education, university systems (USHE), K-12 college access programs (GEAR UP), local and national government, and nonprofit sectors. I have national experience in Washington, D.C. in regard to student advocacy and government relations/congressional advocacy on behalf of education and college access programs (NCCEP). I strive to be a lifelong learner and continually seek opportunities for improvement. I am outgoing, personable, and have a strong passion for representing and advocating on behalf of college students, college affordability and college access. Before joining the Commissioners Office I participated in a Graduate Legislative Internship with the Utah State Legislature and the Hinckley Institute of Politics at the University of Utah.Woo | Positivity | Includer | Communication | EmpathyCliftonStrengths
