1. Tell us about your journey since graduation.
Immediately after graduating from GVSU I moved back in with my parents and attended law school full time at Wayne State University Law School. I earned my law degree in 2024 and began working in private practice. I’ve since joined the firms Business Practice Group and specialize in M&A and Impact Investing.

2. Share a favorite Grand Valley memory.
My favorite memory from GVSU has to be giving tours for the Admissions office. I loved getting to meet potential students and parents and share my love for the University. I made great friends with my fellow tour guides and I’m so thankful for that experience.

3. What's the best piece of advice you've ever received?
The best piece of advice I ever received was to seek out advice wherever you can get it, but only take what feels right for your journey and get rid of the rest. I am where I am because of the guidance and support of so many people who came before me, but I also got a lot of advice that just wasn’t right for my path - and I had to practice letting that stuff go and doing what’s best for me (even if that sometimes means making mistakes).

4. List three words you would use to describe your Grand Valley experience.
Enlightening, adventurous and fun.

5. What difference would you like to make in the world?
It can feel overwhelming to try to make a difference in a world that’s so huge with so many problems. I hope to be the kind of leader that makes small differences in everything I do - that when given any choice, I select the path that improves the environment, my community, the project I’m engaged in or the lives of those around me. Every small action makes a difference!
