Bachelor of Fine Arts, Penny W. Stamps School of Art & Design, University of Michigan
Growing up, I was an enthusiastic learner who cherished my time in the classroom. I also spent countless hours at home exploring subjects like web development and graphic design. This lifelong passion for self-guided learning has converged with my creative interests at the Center for Academic Innovation, where I am able to fuse my love for multimedia production, creative & technical writing, and most importantly, supporting others in bringing their projects to life. Our expansive portfolio is a tapestry of unique initiatives, providing daily opportunities to collaborate with some very talented colleagues. These experiences not only enrich my own knowledge but also provide a firsthand view of the ever-evolving potential of online education. I’m excited to be part of a team that is shaping the future of learning.
