I was born and raised in Beal City, Michigan and attended Central Michigan University to purse a degree in Recreation and Event Management. While in school I completed an internship with S.A.F.E. Management of Maryland. During my time in Maryland, I helped facilitate many different events, including Ravens Game Days, Orioles games, Billy Joel and Stevie Nicks Concert, Preakness/Black Eyed Susan, and various events at the Naval Academy. Aside from events I was also assisting with the onboarding and training processes and daily office operations. Once my 30-week internship was completed, in February 2024 I was offered a full-time position with S.A.F.E. Management of Arizona as the Administrative Coordinator.
