Director of the Office of Multicultural Life

I am an Ohio native, equity advocate, sports enthusiast and a poet.

As the Director of the Office of Multicultural Life (OML) and the Multicultural Center, it is my responsibility to support a just and equitable community at Muhlenberg College. OML serves as a campus-wide resource that facilitates and promotes a learning community of multicultural understanding and exchange through collaboration, dialogue and action.  The Office of Multicultural Life is committed to making a difference in the lives of all students, while advocating explicitly for the concerns of historically underrepresented populations. We welcome your support in this endeavor.

Administrative Assistant
Office of Multicultural Life

I am excited to be working with students in the Office of Multicultural Life and can think of no more important department on campus to serve. In addition to supporting Multicultural Life, I also work with Africana Studies, the Emerging Leaders and First Generation programs.

I am an author, writing coach, and mentor with a decade of experience in liberal arts colleges and universities in New York and Pennsylvania including Penn State Lehigh Valley and Cedar Crest College.

I was a disabled undergraduate student and the first generation in my family to attend college, and the offices and services that helped me finish my degree forever changed my life. I feel a calling to work with this next generation of leaders, embracing the mission of the Office of Multicultural Life with a strong commitment to social justice and cultural celebration. Grounded in positive psychology, my work supports students to excel academically, to feel welcomed and valued, and engages them in experiences that will enrich their careers and their lives.
