What attracted you to Arrupe College?

The mission. I heard about the possibility of Arrupe College in the summer of 2014, and I believed that Arrupe College was important for the students of Chicago. I was very excited to join the startup in October 2014.

How did you get involved in higher education?

After undergrad, I wanted to work for Loyola University Chicago. I was the graduate intern with the first- and second-year advising program, "Bridge to Loyola," and worked with current student leaders and a terrific group of incoming freshmen students. It was the summer that led me to Arrupe College.
