Biography

Meet the Instructor....

When I was a freshman…

My freshman experience was very overwhelming, before it became amazing. I attended a rural, public high school that did not challenge or prepare me academically for my first year of college, far from home. I went from being a big fish in a tiny pond to being a tiny, lost fish in an ocean full of very prepared big fish. Once I admitted my insecurities, I was able to connect with the support I needed to flourish academically (though I highly doubt that any of my freshman-year professors would have guessed that I would end up being a professor myself).   

 

When you visit my office…

When you visit my office, you will find me ready to help you in any way you need. You are welcome to stop by but shooting me an email to let me know that you are coming will help me be able to give you my full attention. I have been at KU for longer than many first-year students have been alive (wild)… Please count on me as a resource to help you get the most out of your time here! 

 

You may be surprised to know…

My whole family will be Jayhawks this year. My son is starting KU law, my daughter will be a first-year student living on campus, and my husband is also a professor. Rock chalk!
