Graduate Academic Advisor II
Academic Advising
H. Wayne Huizenga College of Business & Entrepreneurship
I am enthusiastic about helping students transform their goals into achievements. Through a student-centered approach, I partner with students to create individualized academic plans that support their educational, personal, and professional aspirations.
Meaningful advising begins with trust, communication, and accountability. My goal is to empower students to take ownership of their academic journey while providing the guidance, resources, and encouragement needed to navigate challenges and stay focused on their purpose.
What inspires me most is seeing students grow in confidence, develop new skills, and persevere through obstacles in pursuit of their goals. Whether students are returning to school after many years, balancing family, and career responsibilities, or exploring new opportunities, I am committed to helping them move forward with confidence and determination.
More About Me
I am a global citizen who enjoys traveling, reading, studying history, and writing poetry. Much of my professional career has focused on workforce development, community engagement, and creating pathways to opportunity for others. I have served on nonprofit boards and contributed to community and public policy initiatives throughout New England.
My personal mission is to inspire lifelong learning, help others recognize their potential, and encourage future leaders to use their knowledge and talents to make a positive impact in their communities.
"Leadership is not about having all the answers. It is about inspiring others to discover their potential, overcome challenges, and achieve more than they ever thought possible."
