What is your position on campus? Tell us a bit about what you do for Alpha Phi!

I am the Vice President of Marketing for Alpha Phi, which entails a ton! Under the Marketing department, you’ll find Philanthropy, Parent Relations, Social Media, Merchandise, and Alumnae Relations. I get to work with countless incredible sisters on everything Marketing related and I couldn’t be luckier to have been elected by my chapter as VP of Marketing! 

You’ll be getting a grand-little soon! Tell us about your big & little.

Oh gosh, a grand-little
I am getting SO old!! My big and little are the two most incredible people you will ever meet. They both have the most caring hearts, such fun personalities, and impeccable style! I’m so lucky to have them and I can’t wait for my little, Lauren, to get her own little to add to our little Phi Fam! 

Describe Alpha Phi’s sisterhood in 3 words:

I think it’s impossible to describe something so genuine in only 3 words, but if I have to


Love, Support, and Family 

Where do you find inspiration and/or motivation?

I am a huge quote person. I love coming across quotes that inspire both myself and others. If you ask any of my friends, I’ve probably sent them quotes from time to time for a ton of different reasons. Making other people happy brings me so much joy! 

What’s your favorite food spot in Boulder?

BoCo CafĂ© hands down. They closed last summer, which was heartbreaking
 I still haven’t found a close second!! 

How do you de-stress?

Driving anywhere, windows down, with country music playing. It’s the best cure for stress and takes my mind off of everything. We live in such an incredible place where I could drive in any direction and end up somewhere breathtaking! 

What can we find you doing outside of class?

Working on Alpha Phi projects, spending time with the girls, talking to my Mom on the phone, and usually eating! 

If you had to pick one, coffee or tea?

Coffee, no question! 

What’s your dream job?

My dream job would have to be being a Strategic Account Manager at an Advertising agency in San Francisco. Eventually, I would love to start my own advertising agency and work with philanthropic organizations! 

What’s an interesting fact not many people know about you?

Hmm
I got to be in a Gymboree Ad as a kid. That was a pretty cool experience for 7-year old me! â˜ș
