I value community, love, and imagination – all of which are required for envisioning and creating an equitable world and expansive future. Durham is the home that raised me, so I see my investment in Student U as an investment in the historically rich and resilient community where my roots are found. Joining the Student U team, I am honored and committed to work with and grow alongside our students and families as we collectively mobilize and advocate towards a Durham for all.
Outside of Student U, I try to surround myself with relationships and activities that fill me with joy and rest. I am grateful for my family, friends, and the ad-hoc virtual communities that have emerged within the pandemic Zoom sphere. I enjoy podcasts, outdoor walks and runs, and opportunities to connect with others and facilitate spaces.
