Hello!

I am a POSSE alumni and recent graduate of the University of Virginia (Class of 2022 - Psychology Major). I currently work for Virginia College Advising Corps as a college and career (Post Secondary Pathway) advisor for high school juniors and seniors. While attending the University of Virginia I worked in the following roles: Resident Advisor, Reseach Assistant (Behavioral Research at Darden, Promoting Healthy Adolescent Development), Group Facilitator for Hoos Connected, Carpenter for Theater Groups, Pandemic Volunteer (Tutoring and Food Delivery), and Student Bus Driver. 

Attending college was an interesting journey for me as my parents had attended college by non-traditional means such as through the military or later in life. Thus, all the research on what colleges to attend, how to pay for college, analyzing tax information to complete the FAFSA, etc. was all left up to me. I am so excited to help inform the next wave of college graduates.
