ADVISING:
I have been an Academic Advisor in the Department of Biological Sciences since 2013. Advising involves equipping students to develop an academic plan, navigate campus life, and tap into the great resources and opportunities at Purdue. For me, though, the most significant -- and enjoyable -- aspects of advising are in developing partnerships with students, offering encouragement, and empowering students to clarify and pursue their own unique life and career goals.
ABOUT ME:
I grew up in southwest Florida and experienced my first Indiana fall/winter as a student at Purdue. I played trumpet in the Purdue All American Marching Band (GO AAMB!!) and graduated with my BS in 1992. I began my career as a Field Biologist for an environmental consulting firm gathering field data, serving on multi-disciplinary teams, coordinating with federal/state agencies, and working with the public. I’m also an ordained minister and served as Associate Pastor for several years. I met my husband while attending Purdue and we both currently work on campus. In my spare time, you'll probably catch me enjoying time in the woods, walking with our dog Daisy (border collie mix) or spending time with family.
