What I'm looking for

I'm looking for a team-oriented opportunity where I can gain hands-on experience, develop new skills, and contribute to criminal justice or legal support work.

I've supported the Manitowoc Public Defender Office by managing discovery, case closings, client correspondence, document requests, and communications with the jail, DA's office, and Clerk of Courts.

At UW-Platteville, I engage prospective Criminal Justice and Forensic Investigation students through campus outreach and mock scenarios at the crime scene house.

I'm completing a Criminal Justice degree with a Criminology minor while helping professors with projects and co-planning department career day.
