Areas of Expertise

Biography
I have been with Michigan State University since 2009. My role within the Russell Palmer Career Management Center allows me to drive collaboration between corporate partners, students, and campus stakeholders to deliver high-impact programs and outcomes. I manage a portfolio of corporate partnerships, leading data-informed strategies that increase engagement, strengthen relationships, and generate measurable growth. With a foundation in hospitality and event operations, I am grateful to develop student talent, foster meaningful partnerships, and create experiences that connect students to opportunity while advancing organizational goals. Prior to the Broad College, I was the Director of Sales at the Kellogg Hotel & Conference Center. I developed my ability to support high-level engagement and operational execution. I led a 12-member team responsible for $14M+ in annual revenue and managed complex logistics for large-scale engagements.
