Tell us a bit about what you do here at UNMC?
I am a workstation specialist for the College of Public Health. In this position, I support our faculty and staff with their technology hardware- and software-related needs. Working together is one of UNMC's brand values. Tell us of a time you witnessed a person or group work together at UNMC?
Working in IT allows me to get a real look at how most of our faculty and staff work on a daily basis. No matter whether the work covers education, research, community engagement, training or many others, there are numerous employees that must all play a small part and work together to make the finished product great. What is your favorite summer activity?
I really enjoy being outside. Normally, you can find me working in the yard/garden, working on various house upkeep items or relaxing with a cookout or the occasional golf outing. List three things people may not know about you?
