My name is [[File:MMGrad.jpg|thumb]]I became a UIF in fall 2016 at Southern Illinois University. During my time at SIU, I was able to create a resource guide for first-generation college students as well as help re-vamp the UIF program. I continued to be involved in UIF at SIU until I graduated in May 2019 with a B.A. in Psychology with a minor in Sociology. Throughout my time at SIU, I discovered my love for mentoring and supporting college students, which led me to pursuing a master's degree at Colorado State University studying Student Affairs in Higher Education (expected May 2021). I am currently involved with UIF as a uiguide, but I still hope to dig into some of my passion projects in the future. As a future higher education administrator, I am excited to continue using the skills I have gained through UIF to make change on college campuses. =Related Links= '''Southern Illinois University''' [[Southern Illinois University Student Priorities|Southern Illinois University Student Priorities]] University Innovation Fellows Fall 2016 [[Robert Caswelch|Robert Caswelch]] [[Mary Mcgee|Mary McGee]] Spring 2016: [[Mara Decker|Mara Decker]] [[DJ Jeffries|Deborrius Jeffries]] [[Trevor Jones|Trevor Jones]] [[Asia Lee|Asia Lee]] Fall of 2015: [[Dan Bach|Dan Bach]] [[Thomas Birch|<font face="Arial">Thomas Birch</font>]] Spring 2015: [[Alex Hutchinson|Alex Hutchinson]] [[Brandon Nolte|Brandon Nolte]] [[Katie Dzugan|Katie Dzugan]] [[Category:Student Contributors|m]][[Category:Southern_Illinois_University_(2016_Fall_cohort)]][[Category:Student Contributors]]{{CatTree|Southern_Illinois_University}}
