I’m a seasoned marketing and communications leader with a love for higher education and a deep appreciation for the mission of the College of Science. I'm thankful to have the privilege of helping tell the story of science at Oregon State — how it opens doors for students and drives discoveries that make the world better.
I work alongside a talented, creative team to lead the College’s efforts to build visibility, bolster enrollment, and strengthen engagement with prospective and current students, faculty and staff, and alumni. Our work is grounded in collaboration and driven by a strong commitment to equity, access and inclusion. We’re proud to champion science — and the people behind it.
