What is your favorite thing about working at Loyola?
Working in an environment with so many friendly, cheerful, and helpful people.

What is your most memorable achievement as a Loyola employee?
The first time I saw my name in print as a co-author of a published research paper.

What does Loyola's mission mean to you?
It’s very important to me. Being a person for others is one of the ways I try and live each day. It’s not always easy, but it’s always rewarding.

What motivates you to succeed each and every day?
The prospect of answering a question about our biology that no one has answered before. 

Tell us how you show your Rambler pride.
I recommend Loyola to potential students and employees.

Tell us something most people at Loyola would be surprised to know about you.
I'm a musician on the side and have performed at many venues in and around Chicago, including the Grand Ballroom at Navy Pier, Park West, and the House of Blues.
