I am a FIRE Starter because... in order to spark open discussion, dialogue, acceptance, and understanding one must share the passion in one’s heart. I believe that presenting constructive ideas in creative ways to foster progress in social norms, especially in the ways we understand gender, will lead to a safer and more welcoming campus environment.
My favorite thing about Notre Dame is... being a member of a community that fights for social justice, equality, and the protection of the dignity of each individual and that has members who have such passion for and commitment to building a healthy and inclusive community.
A fun fact about me is... I am a member of the 2011 National Championship ND Fencing Team.
