Why NYU?
NYU is home to innovation, social change and community. Working with my team has been the most joyous experience of my career. Funny enough, it was always one of my goals to work here. Growing up right outside of NYC, the village was home to me. I remember standing in Washington Square Park years back saying this is it. I embrace working in a place where we can have open conversations about diversity, inclusion and women in leadership. Currently, I am working towards my Masters degree in Public Relations. Having access to the resources at Bobst has been an opportunity like no other.
Any advice for new administrators?
The best advice for new administrators is don’t be shy. Everyone is such a pleasure to work with and the environment is like no other. Network and go beyond your office, take a tour of the campus, there is so much to see, experience and eat!
What is your fondest memory of your time here?
My fondest memory would be working with my team on our Pride reception back in 2019. This was an event like no other.
Coke or Pepsi?
Coke all the way.
Coffee or tea?
I can never have enough coffee.
Favorite travel destination?
This is a tough question, so I’ll pick my top 3! Bolivia, Brazil, and Vietnam.
Describe yourself in only three words?
Empathetic, compassionate, and hard-working.
