A fun fact about me: I originally went to college to become a history teacher, but discovered I liked talking about the future more than the past – a discovery which led me to my career as a career adviser!
My favorite part of my job is: Connecting with former students on LinkedIn to follow the many intriguing career paths they take.
I wish more students knew the Center for Career Development offered: Guidance on understanding employment offers and a neutral sounding board to help students consider their options and make informed decisions about work they will find personally meaningful.
If I weren’t doing this job I’d be: Studying a bunch of different languages so I could live – and work – anywhere in the world!
