Favorite thing about working at Carthage
I love seeing how many former students that I’ve worked with go on to do amazing things in their field. It’s great to see the impact they have not only in their jobs, but within their industries.
Other interests?
I love to read. I mostly choose light fiction that’s easy to get into and relaxing, but am open to anything. I also love to craft, though lately I start things that I rarely finish.
