About me professionally:
Education is my world! I love the future and potential it brings to students. I currently work at Oklahoma State College Center for Health Sciences, in Tulsa, OK! I work in Institutional Advancement, which includes everything from connecting with alumni to events on campus and community relations. My previous job was at Community Care College in Tulsa, OK. I worked my way up through the Admissions department from taking calls at the front desk to leading team meetings. On campus, I also taught an introductory course in the evenings to new students called 'Career and Life Development' and maintained student attendance compliance with the department of education. Before working at Community Care College, I worked at a country club in Michigan as a lifeguard for seven summers, was a substitute teacher, and coached 8th grade volleyball. My career goals include staying in the education field, and hopefully including athletics in the mix. My undergrad degree is from Calvin College in Grand Rapids, MI in Physical Education and I grew up a year round athlete. My master's degree is in Education with emphases in Postsecondary Leadership and Sports Leadership.

About me personally:
I currently live in Tulsa, OK with my husband Dan and our miniature schnauzer Hudson! I grew up in Grand Rapids, MI and never thought I'd live out of state, especially Oklahoma. We have been here almost 5 years and I've grown to love this area - I don't miss the cold winters up north! I love to travel, cook, and take part in anything fitness related. A few of my favorite vacations have included San Antonio, Mexico, and Nashville. My favorite things in life include good food, music, athletics, and being with people. I'm a people person and delight in seeing other people happy. I'm also very involved in my church and find community a necessity. Life is busy, but I wouldn't want it any other way!
