About

Continuing education formally or informally throughout a lifetime provides insight into the human experience and creates opportunity to discover purpose and passion. Working in the field of education for 5+ years I have witnessed first hand its life-changing capabilities. I have always been inspired by people with a myriad of experiences which is why I strive to constantly grow as an individual personally and professionally. I enjoy my job because everyday I am surrounded by purpose, passion, and opportunity. As an Admissions Counselor for 2U Inc. I offer consultative advice to passionate people looking into top-tier graduate programs. For a decade, 2U, Inc. has been a trusted brand steward and the partner of choice to the world’s top universities in navigating the complexities of bringing the best of themselves into the digital age. By coming together around one shared goal — delivering great student outcomes — not only are we improving lives, we are transforming the future of higher education for the better.
