Proudest Professional Accomplishment: “I am most proud in my current role as the MisterWives tour/production manager, which at 24 years old has allowed me to learn more about the industry and its technical innerworkings than I've been exposed to before.”
WP Pride. “My advisor, Professor David Philp, has continued to be the most supportive mentor and friend to this day, and without his continued guidance and eagerness to learn alongside his students I don't believe I would be where I am today.”
