The Community Service Department is a resource center dedicated to providing meaningful service-learning experiences to ETHS students. We provide students with personal, one-on-one assistance in identifying service and leadership opportunities in the community as well as within ETHS that suit student schedules, personal goals, skill sets, and interests. Our mission is to connect students to their community to develop relationships, skills, and passions that foster a care for others and a sense of interconnectedness.

Ever since starting as the intern in the office in 2021, I've loved getting to connect students to service and help them discover passions and skills that they can use throughout their lives. Together, we can build the world that we all want to live in. I feel so grateful to the students for bringing excitement and joy into the office every day!
Outside of community service, I direct plays here at ETHS. This year, I'm directing the winter freshmen/sophomore play! Talk to me about puppets, reading, music, or my cats Lady Thistle and Sister Spike (pictured to the left). I also love swimming in the lake, riding my bike, and baking fresh bread!

Hiii :D As the new specialist in the office, I'm so excited to jump into all of the amazing organizing efforts the office makes to provide service experiences to students that enrich them and our Evanston community. I was born and raised in Evanston and graduated ETHS in 2018! After graduating from U of I, I've worked in non-profits as an urban farmer + educator in Chicago, providing free produce and garden education to youth from elementary to high school; and as an after-school program instructor in D65 schools.
Outside of the office, I love to have game nights with my friends, try new restaurants, shop, take care of my houseplants, read, and watch Real Housewives and DragRace.
