As a new CM, I am most excited about working with a new group of students and community partners. I look forward to learning more about the placement sites I am overseeing and making visits! 

Fun fact: I worked at littleGrasse (one of our CBLs) fall of my freshman year  

Where is home? Chicago, Illinois  

Why did you choose SLU? Close-knit community  

Pronouns: She/her 

CBL courses taken: Food and Folk  

Why did you apply to be a CM: To get more involved with the Canton community  

What do you like most/enjoy most about SLU?  Being surrounded by an amazing support system and the outdoors! 

Why should every student take a CBL course during their time at SLU?  It helps to broaden student relationships with the local community and allows them to immerse themselves in unique roles such as working on a farm, helping out at a daycare or working directly with a Canton small business owner.
