Who am I?
Originally hailing from historic Camden, S.C., I joined the Western Admission Team after earning my bachelor’s degree in political science at Clemson University. While an undergraduate, I was involved actively in the Student Government Association, Greek life, and new student orientation. I thrive in administrative academia and really enjoy the welcoming atmosphere here at Western.

Why Western?
Attending a publicly supported university inspired me to pursue a career in public higher education. Western appealed to me personally because of the university’s small-town setting and incredibly beautiful natural setting in the mountains. I also had many friends who attended Western and loved their experiences here. Today I feel I am really making a difference working with prospective students and their families.
