Tell us a bit about what you do here at UNMC.

I am lucky enough to have a job with lots of variety. One of my favorite jobs is working with faculty using instructional design and technology. I enjoy giving them new ideas that can make their courses engaging and fun for the online students. I also update the College of Public Health website, and you can find me managing our social media outlets (Facebook & Twitter). You might even find me behind the camera taking pictures at COPH events.

Being a leader is one of UNMC’s brand values. Tell us of a time you witnessed a person or group act as a leader at UNMC.
I have been at UNMC for a little over a year, and in that time I have witnessed multiple faculty, staff or students being exemplary leaders. I do not have just one example that stands out, because I feel that every person at the COPH takes on leadership roles in a way that benefits everyone here.

What is your favorite summer activity?
I love hanging out by the backyard fire pit with my husband and three daughters, making s’mores and enjoying each other’s company.
