About Me

Hometown: Rapid City, South Dakota
Alma Mater: Black Hills State University, South Dakota State University
Penn Stater since: 2001

My favorite thing about being a World Campus adviser is helping military students achieve their educational goals.

I will always be grateful to my mother and father for showing me how American Indian thought can be incorporated into today’s world.

You might be surprised to know that I am a member of the Oglala Lakota Tribe of the Pine Ridge Indian Reservation in South Dakota. 

I’ll never turn down a dinner invitation for prime rib.

My favorite vacation spot is anywhere I can go with my family. And no matter where we travel, we can always count on running into another Penn Stater.

My four-legged friend is my pit bull, Wellington.

The team I always root for is the Denver Broncos.

If I could only have one book, it would be Standing in the Light: A Lakota Way of Seeing.

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