About Steph

I transferred to Sacred Heart University as a sophomore undergraduate student in fall 2019. During my three years at the university, I was a member of the Gymnastics team, Italian Club and a sister of Delta Zeta sorority. Although I was a commuter student, I found myself at SHU more than anywhere else! My favorite SHU memories are Grilling with the Greeks, being a Student Life work study, and being an FYE assistant for other transfer students. I received my bachelor's degree in psychology in May 2022 and soon after became an admissions counselor. As a Transfer Admissions Counselor, I get to make other transfer students feel welcomed and supported throughout their transition. I love being able to help students fall in love with Sacred Heart the same way I did and trust the transfer process! Roll Pios!
