Length of time at CHL:
Before coming to the CHL in 2017, I worked for the Lafayette School Corporation as a school nurse.

Why do you like working at the CHL?
I love the Purdue population and the chance to work with a community that I have been a part of for many years.

What do you like to do when you’re not at the CHL?
When I’m not at work, you will often find me walking my four-legged child (an English Mastiff), reading or attending class.

Fun fact about me:
I have hiked a mountain in Arizona, swam with sharks in Hawaii, parasailed in the Caribbean; and I am looking forward to my next adventure.
