Service and Leadership
In my decade-long journey in higher education, I've come to realize that the roles of advising professionals extend beyond providing guidance and support to students. It's about fostering connections, igniting passion, and elevating the standards of our institutions and the broader academic community. Serving in leadership capacities, both on campus and within national organizations, is not just a responsibility—it's a privilege. Each role we take on offers an unparalleled opportunity to shape the future of education, ensure student success, and uphold the ideals of academic excellence.
From serving on editorial and review boards to actively contributing to professional organizations, every endeavor has a lasting impact. Through my service with esteemed entities such as NACADA, the National Resource Center for The First-Year Experience, and NASPA, I've witnessed the power of collaboration and the ripple effect of positive change.
At the University of South Carolina (USC), I've had the honor of collaborating with various committees, networks, and task forces. These roles, be it as a senator, content administrator, or a member of specialized groups, have allowed me to contribute towards ensuring a holistic, enriching, and inclusive environment for our student
