Bio:

I earned my B.A. in History and International & Global Studies from the University of Maine at Farmington, where I also served as an AmeriCorps Volunteer with LearningWorks Aim High during my senior year. Following graduation, I served as a Peace Corps Volunteer in Mozambique from 2016 to 2019. After returning to the United States in 2020, I joined the University of Maine in 2021. I recently completed my M.A. in Global Policy at UMaine. Outside of work, I spend summers outdoors in the garden and the winters indoors crafting and cuddling with my two dogs, Django & Churro.
