As dean of students, I direct Innis’s Office of Student Life (OSL) and oversee all student life, residence life, and community wellness activities — and more.

I am happy to learn about your experience at Innis and welcome your thoughts, concerns, and questions. Find me in the OSL in Innis Residence (Room 118) or send me an email.

I help lead the student life team in delivering programming and services to Innis students — focusing on community development, leadership skills development, and fostering the personal growth of students. My goal is to ensure that Innis students are as successful outside of the classroom as they are inside the classroom. I also support the various student clubs and societies that call Innis home. I’d love to hear from you about how we can collectively make Innis a better place for students. You can find me in the OSL, or reach out over email.
