About Me
I transitioned from the public relations industry to Kent State in 2012, hired as a full-time public relations faculty member. I teach undergraduate and graduate classes and serve as the co-chair of the school's Diversity and Globalization Committee. I also serve as the coordinator of Flash Communications, managing students who work side-by-side with our professionals to craft stories for internal and external clients and publications like Kent State Today, staff university events, and manage branding for Flash Comm. Prior to joining Kent State, I worked in the industry managing social media, mobile and web project development, and podcasting for a variety of consumer, state and healthcare clients. Originally from Pennsylvania (go, Penguins!), I moved to Ohio in 2004 after a year in Alaska.
What I Love About Kent State
When I worked in the public relations industry, I was always impressed with the interns we hired who studied at Kent State. I wanted to help continue that tradition and turn our awesome graduates loose on the world. I love the students and what they teach me every year.
Fun Facts
Music and hockey fuel me now. I love to watch and play hockey and listen to and play music. I'm always up for new band suggestions. I'm a huge Marvel and Sci-fi nerd. I spent a year living in Alaska.
