What is your favorite thing about working at Loyola? 
My favorite thing about working at Loyola is the community. I love the people I work with, which makes me look forward to coming to work.

What is your most memorable achievement as a Loyola employee? 
My most memorable achievement to date is receiving this Commitment to Excellence Award. It was totally unexpected.

What does Loyola's mission mean to you? 
The Loyola mission to me means service to others. It is about paying it forward. I feel blessed every day to have the capabilities and knowledge to do what I do.  I think it is only right to use the gifts I have been given to help others, and that’s what I try to do though Loyola’s mission and vision.

What motivates you to succeed each and every day? 
My daughter and wife motivate me each and every day. They are my fuel, and they remind me why it is so important to push for success. I want to set the best example I can for my little girl. I want her to know anything is possible if you try.

Tell us how you show your Rambler pride. 
I show my Rambler pride by spreading the word. I am constantly telling people how great Loyola is as a workplace and school. In the upcoming weeks, I will be giving one of my nephews a tour, because he is interested in all the wonderful things Loyola has to offer.

Tell us something most people at Loyola would be surprised to know about you. 
Before I worked at Loyola, I did some film work! I was an extra in the movie Save the Last Dance that was filmed in Chicago, and if you look close at the trailer of the movie, you can see me doing a little dance.
