About Me

Hometown: Ramey, Pennsylvania
Alma Mater: Penn State (Class of ’94, ’99, and ’07)
Penn Stater since: 2010

I enjoy being a resource to students who have busy everyday lives. Advising encompasses so many different aspects — from providing resources to “teaching” students to find those resources, and really being an advocate.The personal relationship that you develop allows you to not only help the student to succeed and meet their educational goals, but also get through stressful times while meeting those goals!

My favorite season in northeast Pennsylvania is fall because I love the colorful leaves! The earth is so vibrant and pretty at that time of year.

On weekends you can often find me geocaching —  I really enjoy walking in nature.

I never get tired of watching Grease. I love the simplicity of the time period and the vulnerability that you see in all the characters. The music is awesome too!

My TV addiction is Criminal Minds. I have always been interested in different ways that individuals think and act. It’s so interesting to see how they can choose a suspect, based on his or her actions.

I admit I'm a big softy when it comes to my dogs Buddy, a cockapoo, and Max, a mixed breed. They are made to be spoiled!

If I had to survive on just one food, it would be pizza — I could eat it every day!

Office Hours: 8:00 a.m.–5:00 p.m Monday through Friday (Eastern Time)
