She holds a Bachelor’s in Justice Studies and Psychology, and a Master’s in Higher and Postsecondary Education. Her passion for education led her to past roles at Teach for America, Arizona State University, T.W. Lewis Foundation, and the Arizona Education Association.

She is passionate about ensuring every student in Arizona receives an excellent education and is adequately prepared to succeed in college, career, and life.
