Shaelyn has lived in the US and UK and was drawn to this position due to her love for travel and culture as well as her commitment to diversity. Study abroad initiatives hold a dear place in her heart—her parents met while her mother was participating in an exchange program in England. In high school, she volunteered for a study abroad organization and values the connections that developed during that time. She graduated with her BFA from the University of Arizona in 2019. Since then, her professional experience has spanned professional bridal tailoring to working under attorneys in contested litigation matters. Shaelyn is also an avid seamstress and horsewoman. She has worked in costuming for productions both stateside and in England and loves pursuing her creative passions. She lives in Phoenix with her husband and menagerie of pets.
