Biography
As the Assistant Director of Diversity, Equity & Inclusion in the Chemical Sciences, I assist the Department of Chemistry, and the department of Chemical & Biomolecular Engineering (ChBE), with the recruitment, retention, and advancement of graduate students, with a specific focus in traditionally underrepresented groups in both areas.
I also serve on multiple department committees, which include the Diversity Committee and the Climate Committee, and lead the planning of the Annual Women in Chemistry Retreat. I also develop, implement, and run lecture series and workshops, including the Stoesser Lecture.; while also serving as an advocate for graduate students and as Chemistry's and ChBE's liaison to other campus service units.
