I am currently in St. Louis working at SLU with the wonderful development team. When I lived in central Illinois I worked with small non-profits to enhance & redefine development office operations. I love what I do! Being able to work with organizations that change the lives of people in my community is a wonderful opportunity.

I majored in history at the University of Illinois and I am passionate about historic preservation. I have volunteered for many community groups (The Junior League, King's Daughters, The Sierra Club , The Abraham Lincoln Presidential Museum, etc.).

The photo is from a scholarship awards program I presented (that's me with the mic) for AFS Intercultural Programs. It was held in the Old State Capitol of Illinois.
