What do you love most about working in higher education and why?

I think education is very important and the more education one receives, the more knowledge & understanding they have about life.

What’s been your favorite project that you’ve worked on and why?

My favorite projects are making communications and data processes automated because automation means less errors.

What is your favorite quote and why?

“What we think, we become.“ This is my favorite quote because it's true — what we think influences how we act, and our actions define who we become.

Beach vacation or city vacation and why?

A beach vacation so I can go swimming in the ocean and see all kinds of fish!
