I have over 10 years experience in leadership roles from a diverse career background. My ambition drives me to perform above expectations. This level of ambition is how I earned and was awarded the Expert Field Medical Badge while a medic in the United States Army. As a first generation college student, it was an honor to earn not only a Bachelor of Fine Arts, but also 2 graduate degrees - Master of Fine Arts and a Master of Arts. Teaching in higher education has given me the privilege to manage large groups of people and aid in their future professional and personal success. I have a passion for working with people. My strengths include research, multi-tasking, and anticipating needs and opportunities.
