Why I love EMU!
I love working at EMU because we are just small enough where your walking around campus
and
students, faculty and staff know your name and are genuinely interested in how you
are doing and just
provide a sense of community.
Favorite thing about living in the Shenandoah Valley
Growing up on the Eastern Shore mountains we not easily available, so being in Harrisonburg
I have
gained a love for hiking and camping and driving Skyline. I also love to ski so being
20 minutes from
Massanutten Ski Resort has been great. Downtown Harrisonburg has a great variety
of restaurants that have all been wonderful, hard to pick me favorite! The Saturday
morning Farmers Market is also another favorite thing for me and my family to do.
Anything else you should know about me?
I love working in Higher Education and my college career made me realize me passion
for working with
others in Education. I am here to help students and their families navigate the journey
of college and
make it everything they want it to be! I am also the Campus Visit Coordinator so making
your visit
special is what I do!
