I am an Omaha native and a graduate of Mercy High School. My time at Creighton has been shaped by my experiences with the Freshman Leadership Program, Residence Life, the Ignatian Family Teach-In, the campus Writing Center and, most affectionately, the Women’s Empowerment Base. Multiple service-learning courses at Creighton have fueled my commitment to praxis, and I currently volunteer at the YWCA and the Open Door Mission. I hope to spend next year teaching English in a Spanish-speaking community before trying my hand at law school.

Faith is a community endeavor, and I pursue new depth in my personal and social spirituality through these scriptural musings.
