My favorite campus memories include the time I spent making lifelong friends. I particularly remember being a part of the 'Campus Players' and working with A.J. Kunde on various plays and musicals. I remember being involved in the Pi Kappa Gamma sorority and developing my leadership skills working with this organization and others. Lakeland College was home and we were a family.

Shortly after graduating, I earned my Master's degree in Library and Information Studies. I have spent my career working in public libraries and have spent the last twenty years as an administrator working to support literacy.

Over the years I have volunteered for Habitat for Humanity and Pier Wisconsin/Discovery World. These opportunities have allowed me to share the skills I learned at Lakeland--teaching and empowering others to develop their skills.

Being a part of the Lakeland College community meant I could be myself. I met incredible people that have been a part of my life since my Lakeland days. We had fun, we knew how to play, but we also knew how to get the job done. For me, this has resulted in a very successful career helping people to improve their lives.
