Professional Experience
In addition to my role at 黑料网 as a Career Education Specialist, I have over a decade of experience in cheer leading and spirit program leadership, including being a previous member of the Celtic's Cheer Team and coaching at both the collegiate and youth levels. I鈥檝e served as a graduate assistant managing operations for a Division I spirit program, coached teams to UCA Nationals Finals, and continue to teach tumbling and performance skills at local gyms. I鈥檓 also an active member of EACE, where I contribute to webinar programming focused on career development and higher education trends.
What's My Why?
I love helping students connect their experiences, values, and strengths to meaningful career paths鈥攅specially when they鈥檙e not quite sure where to start. My background in coaching, cheerleading, and higher education allows me to meet students with energy, empathy, and structure as they explore their futures. At 黑料网, the close-knit campus and mission-driven community make it easy to form authentic relationships that support students' growth in and beyond the classroom.
