Institution: Western Michigan University
Position: Alumni Relations Summer Initiative Ambassador (just for the summer—I’m job searching!).
What brings joy to your professional life? Working with students (and alumni). When I hear a past or current student express pride in their institution, it makes my job feel meaningful.
If you could be a candy bar, which would you be and why? Skittles because they are fun and colorful.
What did you want to grow up to be when you were 10 years old? A cook—turns out I’m not great at cooking.
Name somebody who has /have made a difference to you in your professional life? How so? Linda Varvel. She was my RA and later my roommate, and she encouraged me to consider student affairs as a profession.
If you had to work on only one project for the next year, what would it be? I would love to work on raising money and awareness to renovate the original buildings on WMU’s campus. There is so much tradition and history there and they are just crumbling—I’m scared that we will lose an important aspect of our campus’ culture without their preservation.
What is your favorite food? Pizza, French fries, and portabella mushrooms. Not together.
If you could learn to do anything, what would it be? Cook! :)
How are you involved in ACPA or the SCGSNP? I am the incoming Sponsored Programs Coordinator.
What is your favorite color? Purple.
What is a personal motto that you live by? "Do what you like, like what you do."
