Education: Undergraduate– Augsburg University, B.A. in Communication Studies. Graduate– Augsburg University, MBA
About Me: I have worked in admissions for four plus years. Helping students achieve their individual goals and dreams through education has always been a passion of mine. Finding the right fit in a university is key to success, helping find that fit is the best part of what I do every day. In addition to my job I love spending time with my family and everything outdoors – I especially enjoy playing golf and ice fishing. As a way to give back to the community I coach high school hockey during the winter months.
Why I love Augsburg: Augsburg has been a major part of my life for a long time. My experience with the university provided me with the perfect platform to learn, grow, strive to be better for myself and others, and gave me all the tools I needed to achieve my own dreams and goals.
Advice to new Auggies: Get involved as much as you possibly can. Support your fellow Auggies, and allow others to support you on the incredible adventure you are starting together!

About Me: I have spent most of my professional career working in higher education and have a strong commitment to creating equitable access to education for all students. As a first generation college student, I navigated the undergraduate college search process on my own and saw, firsthand, some of the challenges with accessing educational opportunities. For the past 20 years, I’ve worked in a variety of institutions, with a diverse group of students and programs. I am passionate about student support and about helping prospective students make a smooth transition from application to enrollment.
Outside of work, my husband and I are proud parents to two kids (ages 13 and 15) and enjoy spending time with family. I am one of 6 kids and love having my siblings over for family dinner and game nights. I also enjoy hiking, running, reading, and yoga (I don’t sit still for long)!
Why I love Augsburg: Augsburg’s commitment to belonging makes our university unique. Students are at the forefront of all decisions and the staff and faculty here are truly invested in student success. Students receive an academically strong educational experience, have incredible opportunities for experiential learning, and are building a higher level of inclusive excellence throughout their studies. This is a supportive space to challenge yourself to grow- personally, professionally, and academically!
