President
I have a deep passion for health and businesses! Currently I'm pursuing a Bachelors of Nutrition with a minor in Entrepreneurship. Following graduation, I will continue on to get a Masters of Dietetics specializing in brain health. I love spending time with my family and friends. In my free time, you can find me hiking, dancing, or making delicious food. The entrepreneurship minor has given me many tools to be successful in my career and future business endeavors. It's truly held the biggest impact in my educational growth at Weber State.
