When I started attending Drake University in the Fall of 2017, I had no idea my life was going to change as much as it did… in the best way! I quickly fell in love with Des Moines and all of the amazing things it had to offer (Smokey Row, anyone?). In my first year of college, I became involved in my sorority, Kappa Kappa Gamma, and have held a position on Chapter Council ever since. I love to be part of the behind the scenes work that makes an organization function as flawlessly as possible.
When I’m not on campus, I love visiting my family back home in central Illinois. We enjoy shopping, working out, and watching movies on Netflix every Saturday night. I also help out at my high school job at a local popcorn and candy shop whenever I’m on break from school. You’re probably wondering if I’m allowed to eat our product while working and the answer is yes… and I probably eat too much of it!
I’m passionate about politics and community involvement. Last semester, I joined Drake’s Non-Profit Consulting Group and was given the task to lead a team to redesign Jewels Academy’s website and marketing plan. I was recently given the honor of being president of the consulting group for the 2020-2021 school year. I’m so excited to join the Bishop White team and help this amazing company reach its full potential!
