Learn about your Admission Counselor:

Favorite thing about North Central: North Central College’s location is top-tier! Growing up in Naperville, I have always loved the downtown area. There are always new places to explore, and the scenery is beautiful from the nature to the architecture. I feel very “at home” while on campus – and if I want an adventure, the Metra train to the city is just down the street.

Words I use to describe North Central students: Motivated, hard-working, fun, and friendly!

Why did I choose to become an Admission Counselor/staff member at North Central? I am passionate about supporting students as they navigate their academic and professional journeys. It is my goal to serve as a resource to students as they navigate transitions and ensure that they have the knowledge and tools to make informed decisions. I love the NCC community, and I hope that I can make an impact with every student I meet.

Favorite Naperville restaurant: Gyu-Kaku Japanese BBQ is a fun place to spend quality time and share a meal with friends and family! 

Favorite season in Naperville: Spring – I love when the weather starts to get warmer, the sun sets later, and the trees and flowers start to bloom again! It’s a time full of celebrations and excitement for what’s to come.

Advice to students: Be open to new experiences and opportunities! Step out of your comfort zone a little bit and figure out what you like and don’t like. Apply for internship/job opportunities, join student organizations, attend campus-wide events, study abroad - understand who you are and who you want to become. And if you need support and guidance, let us know – we’re here for you!
