Biography

UMKC has people who genuinely care about our students’ success. And that doesn’t mean just being successful after college (even though that’s very important!). There are people here to support the small successes too – successes like the “A” on a test or project, the decision to join an organization, or to add a minor on to your program. We care about YOU, and I don’t think people realize how rare that is. 

I appreciate finding new shows, podcasts, and music to listen to. I love baking even though I don’t get to do it enough! However, my all-time favorite thing is playing with my dog, Billy!
