Personal Highlights:
I am absolutely thrilled to be a part of Shenandoah Community. The warm welcome and supportive environment have made me feel right at home. I look forward to making a positive impact on the lives of students and colleagues.
Family is my rock, and I’m all about whipping up delicious grub that brings us together. When I’m not teaching, you’ll find me shredding the rapids on a white-water rafting adventure or hiking. Finding inner peace through meditation and spiritual retreats keeps me balanced. And to add to my list of passions, gardening holds a special place in my heart. There’s something magical about nurturing plants and watching them grow. Life’s good!
