I joined Kent State University in 2019 after almost 10 years working at Georgetown University's School of Foreign Service. While at Georgetown, I was director of communications, overseeing a team responsible for all editorial, creative and social media content for the school. I was also responsible for communications strategy and execution in the lead-up to the school's Centennial, earning a President's Excellence Award. Prior to that, I managed content for HomeAdvisor (previously ServiceMagic), a tech company based in Denver. I earned my master's degree in Communications, Culture and Technology from Georgetown University and have a Bachelor of Science in Magazine Journalism from Ohio University.

I transitioned from the public relations industry to Kent State in 2012, hired as a full-time public relations faculty member. I teach undergraduate and graduate classes and serve as the co-chair of the school's Diversity and Globalization Committee. I also serve as the coordinator of Flash Communications, managing students who work side-by-side with our professionals to craft stories for internal and external clients and publications like Kent State Today, staff university events, and manage branding for Flash Comm. Prior to joining Kent State, I worked in the industry managing social media, mobile and web project development, and podcasting for a variety of consumer, state and healthcare clients. Originally from Pennsylvania (go, Penguins!), I moved to Ohio in 2004 after a year in Alaska.
