Platform Statement:

I am a faculty advisor who has been involved with NACADA for almost a decade. I believe that I understand the issues that are important to faculty advisors; I believe that I also understand the role of NACADA in the professional development of faculty advisors.

My primary goals include:

While I certainly understand the need to be involved in the state, regional, and national professional organizations of my own discipline (and I do belong to those organizations and attend some of the conferences), I have consistently chosen to attend NACADA and submit presentations to advising conferences because I perceive advising as an important and integral part of my role as a faculty member.
