From the Candidate:
I am honored to be a candidate for the TASFAA Board of Directors. I currently serve at Abilene Christian University and have dedicated more than 16 years to the financial aid profession, helping students and families navigate the path to higher education. Throughout my career, I have been passionate about student success, professional development, and building meaningful connections within the financial aid community.
My commitment to leadership and service extends beyond financial aid. At ACU, I serve as Chair-Elect of Staff Council, a Mentor for the ACU Online Student Advisory Council, and a lead for the Organizational Clarity Committee. These roles have strengthened my ability to collaborate with diverse stakeholders, lead strategic initiatives, and support positive organizational growth.
Within TASFAA, I currently serve as Chair of the Awards and Scholarship Committee, where I have the privilege of recognizing and supporting the outstanding professionals who contribute to the strength of our association. I am seeking a position on the Board because I want to continue giving back to an organization that has played a significant role in my professional development while helping guide its future. I am committed to fostering member engagement, encouraging leadership development, and ensuring TASFAA remains a valuable resource for professionals at every stage of their careers.
What I hope members know about me is that I lead with integrity, collaboration, and a servant-leadership mindset. I believe our association’s greatest strength lies in the collective knowledge, experience, and dedication of its members, and I would be honored to represent and serve you on the TASFAA Board of Directors.
Outside of work, I enjoy spending time outdoors, staying active, trying new recipes, and creating lasting memories with family and friends. These experiences keep me grounded and remind me of the importance of community, connection, and lifelong learning.
