Biography

Master's of Science in Public Communication and Technology - Colorado State University (2012-present)

Bachelor of Arts in Communication Studies - University of Nevada, Las Vegas (2011)

I grew up in small town Wyoming, but decided to trade God's Country for Sin City when I went off to college. While pursuing my degree and then immediately after, I completed two internships as part of the Disney College Program - first in California at Disneyland, and then in Florida at Walt Disney World. I have also done internships with United Way of Larimer County in public relations and event planning for their AmeriCorps program and Triad Dragons/Global Dance Music in Denver in social media.

I came to CSU to pursue a master's degree, and be a little bit closer to home. My thesis research is focused on social media use by mental health non-profit organizations, which I hope to complete in Spring 2014.
