Born and raised in Lincoln, I am an alumnus of Upward Bound and a first-generation graduate of the University of Nebraska-Lincoln. I received my bachelor's degree with distinction in May 2023, having double-majored in fine art and psychology, with an emphasis in painting and a minor in English. I work for Upward Bound to help students navigate the fears and obstacles that I also remember facing in high school as an aspiring college student, and because I am committed to inspiring the students in our Upward Bound family to overcome any obstacle to study what they love and pursue their dreams.
