As of February 2021, I am the new EDA Planner for the UMVRDC! I am originally from the small town of Marietta, Ohio. I graduated in the Fall of 2019 from The Ohio State University with a Bachelor of Science in City and Regional Planning. I have had the chance to work in the public sector in the Office of Community Development at the Ohio Development Services Agency for two years. I have also been a part of some great projects such as rewriting the zoning code for Plain City, Ohio and developing an “Aging in Place” comprehensive plan for Franklin County, Ohio. I am now living in Montevideo, and I am so thrilled to be here in this beautiful region and begin work with our communities! In my free time, I enjoy exercising, reading, camping, cooking, hiking, fishing, going to concerts (pre-COVID), exploring new places, and spending time with family and friends.
