She received her BA in English at Cal Poly Humboldt and her MA in English at Portland State University. Her emphases in TESOL and linguistics led to a CELTA certificate and participation in the JET (Japan Exchange and Teaching) Programme from 2018-2020.

Thank you for visiting the GSA website! I hope your attention to our leadership’s profiles enables you to reach out to us for support, more information, and to provide your own recommendations that make our community safer and happier. As this year’s president, my work is to solidify the accomplishments of last year’s Executive Council - including proposed allocated funding and programming for traditionally marginalized and underrepresented student groups - doubling down on advocacy for graduate students battling discriminatory practices, and assisting the set up of GSA’s new community engagement division, the Scholars of Color Alliance (SOCA). 

Please reach out (gsapresident@ucdavis.edu) if you’d like to weigh in on these or any other current graduate student issues - my door is always open.
