I graduated from Illinois State University in 1998 with a BS in business education. I am a member of the Honors Society Pi Omega Pi and the professional fraternity Delta Sigma Pi. I also worked as a dormitory Resident Assistant for my final two years.

Since starting at Hill, I have coached track for 6 years, sponsored Web Club and Running Club, served as Communications Liaison to the community and media and web master for Hill. My activities at school, keep me busy during the school year.

During the summer, I own a small house painting company, participate in Porsche Club of America activities, cook, garden, travel, and spend time with my two beautiful Australian Blue Heeler pups.
