Platform Statement:

My eleven years of membership with NACADA have been significant in my personal and professional development, and I would relish the opportunity to reciprocate by providing leadership as a Board member. As NACADA grows, we must focus on how we serve both advisors and students on our campuses. Areas of focus for me are:

  • Diversity - As we become more diverse as institutions and as individuals, NACADA must continue to improve ways to meet the needs of members and institutions who represent the variety of backgrounds, cultures, school sizes and school types.
  • Professional Development -NACADA is a primary source of professional development for advisors. We must explore new and innovative opportunities to offer this development to our members in a variety of cost-effective ways.
  • Community Building/Networking - Because we are a large organization, we must continue to develop strategies that allow individual members to have a sense of belonging in NACADA. Building and maintaining our NACADA communities and networks deserves specific attention.

It would be an honor to be elected to the NACADA Board of Directors and be a part of a bright NACADA future.
