What is your favorite thing about working at Loyola?

Supporting our students and staff. Knowing that I can have a positive impact on someone’s day is an amazing feeling. I also enjoy working so close to the lake.

What is your most memorable achievement as a Loyola employee?

Though it just happened, my most memorable achievement would also be the one I am most proud of. This September marked my fifth year at Loyola; I probably wouldn’t have accomplished this without the support of my family and great co-workers.

What does Loyola's mission mean to you? 

Embracing diversity, and helping each other when we can.

What motivates you to succeed each and every day?

My family is a huge motivator for me. My three older sisters have all found their path towards caring for others in health services, social work, and customer support. I believe my path is in education.

Tell us how you show your Rambler pride.

I show my Rambler pride by making sure that the work I do and the assistance I provide is always to the best of my abilities. We teach our students to be their best; as staff, we should expect the same from each other.

Tell us something most people at Loyola would be surprised to know about you.

Though I am not very good at all of them yet, I enjoy sewing, crafting/DIY, and photography.
