Originally from Youngstown, OH, my advocacy journey started during my time as an undergraduate student at Georgetown University. In addition to learning to embrace my own disability identity, I also helped lead the effort to create a Disability Cultural Center at Georgetown. After graduating, I joined Georgetown’s Office of Advancement to work on alumni engagement, fundraising, and event planning. I joined the Disability Rights Fund in June 2024 to pursue the perfect combination of my interests and passions.

In my free time, I enjoy playing board games with friends, coaching collegiate debate teams, going on a hike, listening to an audiobook, or baking a new dessert recipe.

My book recommendation: Thick: And Other Essays by Tressie McMillan Cottom.
