Expertise that I have acquired in my life and career that I bring to my term of service on the SCU Alumni Board

I am incredibly proud of the leadership skills that I have acquired in my time as an educator. Teaching requires an immense amount of professional preparation, execution, and procedural review. More importantly, I have strengthened foundational leadership and interpersonal skills related to communication, conflict mediation, and empathetic understanding—all of which are especially impactful given the unique challenges that this generation of young adults faces. I look forward to bringing these areas of professional expertise to my work with the Alumni Board of Directors!
