Talk about your job and what you like best about it:

I am the administrator for the division of rheumatology in the UNMC Department of Internal Medicine. The best part about my job is two-fold — the people and the mission. The team I get to work with and for are top-notch, the finest people around! And I get to play my part in supporting faculty and staff as they educate students, care for patients, and create new knowledge and treatments through research.

List three things people may not know about you:

• While no longer quick, I enjoy running long distances, including completing two marathons in less than a week and a 5k, 10k, half-marathon, and full marathon on successive days.
• I served 10 years in the Army National Guard as an 88M, including a deployment to Iraq in 2003-2004.
• I hold a Ph.D. in organization and management with a focus on non-profit and government leadership.
