About Me
Hometown: Jerome, Pennsylvania
Alma Mater: American University, Vanderbilt University, and Robert Morris University
Penn Stater since: 2005
I simply love interacting with students. The opportunity to learn more about them and their academic needs is an honor, and it is inspiring to learn about their backgrounds and where they are headed on their academic path.
My greatest influence is my parents—my mom taught me to be gracious, and my dad taught me to speak my mind.
My favorite book is Blue Highways by William Least Heat-Moon.
My favorite Penn State tradition is the chimes at Old Main, which I can hear from my house. So cool!
The best part about being a Penn Stater is having regular access to the Creamery.
