What is your favorite thing about working at Loyola?
It's a three-way tie between student students, my team, and that view of the lake from my office!
What is your most memorable achievement as a Loyola employee?
Watching my students who struggled with their academics graduate!
What does Loyola's mission mean to you?
The Jesuits do education right. As a Jesuit educated individual i think the idea of a holistic education is vital to developing students. Students aren't just here to learn about accounting or history- they are here to learn about themselves, discover who they are, and how they fit in the world.
What motivates you to succeed each and every day?
To ensure I am making a positive impact on our LUC community each day. My hope is that a student feels safe and supported knowing i am somewhere on campus for them to talk to when they need me (usually with a snack for them).
Tell us how you show your Rambler pride:
