From the Candidate:
I have worked in higher education since 2008, beginning in undergraduate recruitment before
transitioning to financial aid in 2012, where I found my passion for helping students navigate access
to higher education. I currently serve as Financial Aid Manager at San Jacinto College North
Campus, a public community college serving a diverse student population, and earned my FAAC®
designation in 2022, reflecting my commitment to professional excellence and lifelong learning.
In 2025, I was honored to receive the TASFAA Trailblazer Award and the SWASFAA Philo Brasher
Emerging Leadership Award. These recognitions reinforced my dedication to servant leadership
and to supporting both students and colleagues throughout our profession.
My involvement with TASFAA has provided meaningful opportunities to serve and grow as a leader.
During the current term, I have served as both Board Secretary and Board Member At-Large,
supporting board initiatives while gaining a deeper appreciation for the collaboration, mentorship,
and service that make TASFAA such a valuable organization. I also serve as Chair of the NASFAA
Credentialing Committee and continue to support TASFAA through the 2026 Fall Conference
Committee, in addition to serving on previous conference committees.
I am seeking election to continue building on this service and to help strengthen member
engagement, leadership development, and professional growth opportunities across the
association. TASFAA has played an important role in my career, and it would be an honor to
continue serving an organization that invests so deeply in its members and the students we serve.
