City Liaison
Biography

Pronouns: He/Him

Hometown: Ankeny, Iowa

Major: B.S. Economics

Minor: Statistics

Involvements around campus: USG and I also work at Tribute in the Iowa River Landing!

What are some goals and/or initiatives you are excited to work on this term?: The Finals Week Parking initiative was spearheaded by me and required strong interpersonal communication between USG and the City Manager/City Council! Now, we are well on our way to having a new initiative that I believe will be incredibly useful to students. The Lease Gap program is aiming to be transitioned to the Graduate, and I am excited to see the work with our new campus partner come into fruition. The Renter's Guide will start to take on some real utility as well, because I am using R to analyze the statistics, and prepare visualizations. Amongst all this, I am still committed to creating as much visibility for USG in our Iowa City Council chamber.
