If I wasn't an Academic Advisor I would have been a teacher.

My major in college was Geography and I chose it because I wanted to study so many different things and geography included history, laboratory sciences, social sciences, and math.  It was the perfect fit for me.

The top three life skills that I learned while in college are:
1) the appreciation for our big, wide world and the amazing people on it
2) problem solving skills in the classroom and in life
3) how to research and present information that is accessible to a wide, diverse audience

My favorite quote is:
Education is the most powerful weapon we can use to change the world. (Nelson Mandela)
