Tell us a bit about your background and where you consider home to be.
I’ve been working in student affairs now for about 10 years. Broadly, I’d consider the East Coast of the United States to be home.

Why did you decide to join the College of Forestry as an academic advisor and what are you looking forward to doing here?
I decided to join the College of Forestry because of its uniqueness in terms of the degree programs it offers and student populations it serves. I am looking forward to helping COF students meet their academic goals through advising.

What is something you want every student to know (about you or generally)?
I would say that I am committed to COF students’ success and that I want all of them to get as much out of their experience at Oregon State as possible.

What do you like to do in your free time?
I am an avid baseball fan. I follow the game pretty closely. My team is the New York Mets.

If you could have any animal as a pet, what animal would it be and why?
Honestly? A cat. I already have one and they are great companions. They’re very funny and come in handy if there’s a bug in the house or something even scarier (like a mouse).
