What is your favorite thing about working at Loyola? Being able to contribute to a diverse learning community that is committed to the service of others. 

What is your most memorable achievement as a Loyola employee? Organizing the first graduation reception for students in the Online Bilingual MSW program. It was an honor to play a role in helping Dean Menon's vision come to fruition and to celebrate the graduation of our inaugural cohort. 

What does Loyola's mission mean to you? LUC's mission informs how I approach my work every day. I enjoy working with students to expand their knowledge, especially at the School of Social Work where our students learn how to care for those who are in need of mental health resources or have been marginalized by society. 

What motivates you to succeed each and every day? Collaborating with likeminded professionals who are equally dedicated to making an impact on students' lives.

Tell us how you show your Rambler pride: I love cheering for our athletic teams, especially during our cross-town rivalry games against DePaul. 

Tell us something most people at Loyola would be surprised to know about you: I love home improvement projects that require me to use power tools!
