Hello! I am the Director of Career Services & Internships at NHCC.
I meet with students 1:1 for personalized degree and career exploration. I also help students with their career-readiness and job/internship search.
Join me at our STEM Career Fair in the fall and our Business Career Fair in the spring. I host Zoom workshops weekly and other employer sponsored events throughout the year.
My higher-education career began 20+ years ago as an adult student at Saint Paul College, where I was hired as an adjunct faculty member after graduating from their Culinary Arts program.
I loved community college so much that after 5 years of teaching, I switched over to the Student Affairs side to continue supporting students full time. I joined the team at NHCC as an intern (at 45 years old!) in the Advising Center. From there, I joined the Financial Aid team for a few years, then returned to my first love of helping students as a Career Pathways Advisor. Now, I'm the director of the Career Center!
During COVID, I completed a Master's degree in Academic Advising from Kansas State University. This journey has given me a profound respect for our community of diverse students who sacrifice a lot to juggle family, work, and college life. It's not easy, but earning a college degree is so rewarding.
I am here to help you sort out big decisions and realize your dreams!
