I’m a Career Coach at the University of Utah, helping students turn their strengths and interests into meaningful career paths. Whether it’s exploring options, polishing résumés, or prepping for interviews, I provide the tools and support students need to move forward successfully. My goal is simple: to help every student leave college not just with a degree—but with direction, purpose, and the skills to succeed. Before the U, I spent 25 years as a high school counselor, helping students navigate big life decisions and transitions and pursue their goals with confidence. I bring that experience to higher education, helping students build skills, grow professionally, and implement strategies to thrive in today’s job market.
