GlamourGals has been such an important aspect of my life for over 17 years. I met Rachel Doyle in 2005 at the HOBY Leadership Seminar and was inspired to take on the role of Co-President and then President of my high school’s GG chapter. Then when I started my undergraduate education, I wanted to bring GG with me even though I was no longer a teen volunteer. I decided to start the George Washington University chapter and was able to, along with the help of my sorority sisters who volunteered, write my senior thesis about the inter-generational function that GG played for the elderly women living in Washington, DC nursing homes. Even after graduation, when I moved to NYC, I volunteered to take on many leadership roles within the GG organization such as Alumni Council Chairwoman, Deputy Liaison, and GG Twitter Team so that I could continue to watch the foundation grow.

After moving to Los Angeles in 2015, I have been able to take on my most rewarding leadership role yet as a member of the Advisory Council. From planning and executing LA shopping events where proceeds go to GG to hosting mentor calls with the GG interns based in NYC to voting on the winners of the Glammy Scholarship Awards, I am so grateful to be able to give back to the organization that has shaped me into the powerful and passionate woman I am today.

I currently work in the intersection of Entertainment and Technology as a Marketing Manager of Global Podcasts at Spotify in Los Angeles and recently graduated from UCLA's Anderson School of Management with my MBA in 2020.
