Please reflect on why you chose SSU.

I chose SSU for the smaller classroom and campus size as well as the location was far from my home and beautiful.

What is one piece of advice you'd give your college self?

Don't be shy about networking through staff. They want to help you succeed and offer extensive networks to help connect you to your career interests. 

What does life look like now after graduating from SSU?

I work at the Napa Valley Transportation Authority where I oversee the bus network. I married a fellow SSU Alum and we have one beautiful daughter.

What have you been involved with at SSU?

Peer Mentor, Summer Orientation Leader, Student Government, Teaching Assistant, The Vagina Monologues
