Talk about your job and what you like best about it: One of my favorite parts of my role is getting the opportunity to work with a talented pre-medicine population that is interested in learning about and applying to our UNMC College of Medicine. Working with so many intelligent, resilient and driven students is so inspiring. Additionally, having the opportunity to talk about Nebraska and Omaha with potential applicants who are unfamiliar with the state but are considering applying/moving to Omaha is always fun. There’s more to do here than people realize. Our admissions office is always working on something different depending on the time of year; it adds a lot of variety to tasks to keep things interesting!
List three things people may not know about you:
- My husband, David, and I are expecting our first child in early October (tips welcome!).
- I live in Lincoln and commute to Omaha.
- My connections to UNMC are deep — my grandfather was one of the founding chairs of the UNMC Department of Family Medicine (Francis Land, MD).
