She earned her Masters in Business Administration from Kelley School of Business with a focus on Marketing and Business Analytics in 2012. She then worked as a Marketing Consultant with DuPont Corporate Marketing & Sales delivering projects in process improvement, digital strategy, business strategy, channel, and pricing management helping different businesses within the company.

"Ever since I had my two little ones, I viewed myself as a mom first and then a professional. Plus being raised outside the US often had me stumble upon many questions and I appreciated any help or education that I could get in being able to be the best mom that I could for my kids. Serving on the MCHC Board is a wonderful opportunity for me to now give back to others who may need this support. MCHC is local as well and that makes it even more meaningful to me!"
