    Advising Locations:

    • White Hall, Rm 304

    While doing a senior internship at NEOUCOM (now NEOMED) for my Business and Organizational Communication degree through the University of Akron, I realized the public relations field wasn't for me. I enjoyed working in the higher education setting and working with college students. I did graduate with a B.A. in that major, but then went on to earn my M.Ed. in Student Personnel in Higher Education here at Kent State University with a graduate assistantship advising the Commuter and Off-Campus Student Organization (COSO). In September 1999, I had the incredible luck of returning to White Hall as a Program Counselor in 306.  I am a member of the Kent Academic Support and Advising Association (KASADA) and the National Academic Advising Association (NACADA).  I believe that each student is a book - sometimes an open book, sometimes a closed book.  Each student has his/her own story.  I like to read students - crack open the cover, read their cover page and delve right in.  As an advisor, I hope to help write a few sentences, maybe a paragraph in the story of a student.  Wow!  How powerful is that!
