Community organizer, mediator & campus communicator
I build the systems that hold a community together — student government, campus ministry, residence halls, local campaigns — then run the events, surveys, and conversations that keep them working.
I'm a Communication major at Seton Hall University who ended up, almost by accident, running a lot of committees. It started with a student representative seat on my hometown school board and a teen advisory board that raised money for the local fire house. It hasn't really stopped since.
These days that means mentoring 40 residents as a Resident Assistant, co-chairing Campus Ministry's E-board, and producing a podcast for the university's Career Center. The through-line is the same wherever I show up: listen carefully, write it down accurately, and build something the community actually uses.
Outside of campus governance, I've managed ice cream shops, planned a two-day retreat for 50 students, and built a campaign website from scratch for a New Jersey mayoral race. I like the parts of leadership that don't get talked about much — the surveys, the follow-up emails, the mediated roommate conversation at 11pm.
