This is my first year as an RA and 2nd year living in Bechtel Hall. I grew up in Dubuque Iowa where i played football and was the captain of the tennis team at Hempstead High School. I am undecided for my major, but am leaning towards being an I/O psychologist or a CRNA along with pursuing a minor in management. When I'm not at school i love to be around friends and relax. I work full time as a lifeguard, and i enjoy outdoor activities including sports, exploring, and just about anything else. I also have a passion for reading, and the occasional video game

I will be a senior at SAU and double majoring in Business Management and Criminal Justice. This will be my first year living in Bechtel Hall and I am very excited to help guide this year's freshman class. This will be my second year being a part of the Residence Life Staff. Other than Residence Life I am also involved in Habitat for Humanity where I am the President on the Executive Board and a part of Campus Ministry. I love to do anything outside. I love playing golf when its nice out, playing beach volleyball, baseball, basketball. I am an avid Notre Dame fan so, on Saturdays in the fall you will be able to find me in my room screaming at the TV watching the Irish play. I also am a Bulls, Bears, Blackhawks and White Sox fan. I can't wait for an awesome year with the Bechtel and North Hall staffs.
