How did you end up here in the College of Forestry?<\/strong><\/p>\n

I\u2019m a third-generation Beaver! I ran track here, and after I graduated, I lived in California for a year and a half before going back to school to get my teaching certificate so I could be a physical education teacher, but at that time, the job market was really competitive, so one of my friends suggested I get a job on campus. I worked in the registrar\u2019s office for five years and in The School of Civil and Construction Engineering for a month shy of 20 years. I\u2019ve been here for five.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

What\u2019s your favorite part of your job?<\/strong><\/p>\n

The people. I love my colleagues and the students I advise.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Do you still run? What are your other hobbies?<\/strong><\/p>\n

I can\u2019t run anymore, unfortunately. I had two knee surgeries, and I didn\u2019t get the therapy I needed right away, so I never got back into. I like to play computer games and spend time with my family. I have one sister who lives here in town, and she has two kids. My older son lives in Albany with his three kids. I have step son in New Zealand, and we were able to visit him there about five years ago.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

That\u2019s amazing. Do you travel a lot?<\/strong><\/p>\n

Not really, but I do go to Maui every year. We like to go for the women\u2019s basketball tournament and experience 84-degree and sunny December days.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Have you read any good books lately?<\/strong><\/p>\n

Right now I\u2019m rereading the Hunger Games. I love those types of books.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

If you were an ice cream flavor, what kind would you be?<\/strong><\/p>\n

Chocolate. It\u2019s my favorite. And it has to be Umpqua ice cream.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

What\u2019s the scariest thing you\u2019ve done for fun?<\/strong><\/p>\n

I\u2019ve been zip-lining in Hawaii a few times, and I enjoy white-water rafting. My sister wants to skydive, but I would never do that.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
