What do you enjoy most about working with NAU undergrads? 

I am inspired by their energy and fresh perspectives.  The quality of students I have met here at NAU is impressive.

What is your favorite place on Campus? 

The North quad.  I love the older buildings constructed of brick and stone and, of course, the beauty of the open area with its majestic trees - whether it is covered with green grass or new fallen snow.

Why should students take advantage of the Student Success Coaching Program? 

It’s what I consider a gift.  Coaching provides such an advantage to students.  It provides students with skills they can use to achieve their personal and academic goals throughout their lives.
