Expertise that I have acquired in my life and career that I bring to my term of service on the SCU Alumni Board

  • From my career in marketing, sales and strategy I've built skills to use data to tell stories, craft compelling narratives to generate demand and close deals, and collaborate across functions. While at SCU I was the student representative to the Academic Affairs Committee and served on the Leavey School of Business Dean Search Committee. Time spent in these committees has given me perspective into the function of SCU's academic leadership, how decisions are made and what tradeoffs must be considered.
