Profile
I have worked in higher education for over a decade and began supporting faculty in research development and grant writing in 2022. I specialize in managing the pre-award side of grants—everything from finding the right opportunities to crafting budgets and making sure proposals align with funders' expectations. I love working behind the scenes to support innovative research and build strong, collaborative relationships with the faculty I support. Outside of work, I enjoy wrangling my two children and my small menagerie of pets. I also enjoy gardening, reading, watching television, and playing games.
