Biography
Hometown
I am definitely considered a Floridian, but I also have roots in South Carolina and New Jersey.

BS in Business Administration from Âé¶¹ÊÓÆµ Southern College and currently in the MS in IO Psychology program.
Why Âé¶¹ÊÓÆµ Southern
As an FSC graduate, I found great value and reward in seeking academic growth from an institution such as Âé¶¹ÊÓÆµ Southern. I was also able to experience and see the importance of my college advisor and the advising staff. This inspired me to embark upon academic advising, where I continue to support students in their educational journeys. Âé¶¹ÊÓÆµ Southern College, along with many of my mentors, helped me realize the possibility of attaining my degree, which I had once given up on. With a background in management, leadership, and career coaching and development, academic advising has proven to be a perfect fit for me. Helping others achieve their goals has always been a passion of mine, and it is incredibly rewarding in my current role.
