I am a junior majoring in Zoology with a focus in Animal Behavior and Neurobiology in the pre-veterinary program! This summer I’ve been working as an Animal Keeper at a zoo for farm animals in the northern suburbs of Chicago. This is my second year as a Student Associate and I am very excited to work with the team and make this year a great one for One Community. In my free time, I love hanging out with my dog, Rae, cooking and crafting, and doing all things related to being outside.

I am a second-year graduate student pursuing my master's in social work with a concentration in Organizational and Community Leadership (OCL). This summer I have been focusing on spending time with my family and dogs and working at a local ice cream shop in my hometown of Libertyville, Illinois. This is my first year as a Student Associate and I am so, so excited to work with the rest of the team to continue to make One Community a welcoming and safe space for everyone to thrive in. In my free time, I enjoy crafting (crocheting & knitting), doing yoga, baking, cooking, and spending time with the people I love.

​I’m a junior in Lyman Briggs College majoring in Genomics and Molecular Genetics and minoring in Bioethics on the Pre-PA track. This summer I'm taking classes and working on campus. I'm also planning on starting patient care hours for PA school applications. This is my first year as a student associate, and I'm so excited for the upcoming year. In my spare time, I like lifting weights, crocheting, and reading.
