About
Currently I am working through my final year at the University of Colorado Denver and Colorado Springs campuses to achieve my Masters in Public Administration. With this degree I hope to attain a position working in the Environmental Protection Agency as a Policy Analyst as policy and law have been my primary focus throughout my graduate career. My undergraduate degree is in Communications with a minor in Criminal Justice. I live in Colorado with my husband and four year old son, Henry, who is the joy of my life. Everything I do I do with him in mind which is why I would like to work for a greener political agenda that allows me to leave the world a better place than I found it for him.

Goals and interests
- Career goal
I would like a position at the Environmental Protection Agency as a policy analyst, but I would really be happy working anywhere that I can help turn the tide on Climate Change or at least assist in mitigating it's impacts and ratcheting back some of the harm that humans have done to the planet in the name of progress.
- Outside the classroom
Growing up in Colorado made me a lover of all things outdoors. I like to mountain bike, skateboard, camp, hike and just be outside with my family. On rainy days you can find me indoors playing with my son, playing video games or practicing my drumming technique.
