My current occupation is...

I'm currently a full-time graduate student at Canisius College in Buffalo, NY. My program is a Masters of Education in College Student Personnel Administration but I also hold a Graduate Assistant position in the Pre-Medical Center at Canisius as an adviser. I enjoy working in higher education with college students.

Who was your greatest influence or mentor as a student and why?

I would say that Dr. Stanton, the Chair of the Political Science Department, had the most influence as my mentor. He was a straight-shooter and not afraid to hold me to a higher standard as a student, thinker, and man. His passion for students was evident in our interactions and his unwavering expectations for my academic and personal conduct propelled me forward.

My friends and I like to...

While I was at Grove City College my buddies and I enjoyed playing various games. Board games, video games, intramural sports games, pick-up sports games, etc. Mostly, we just enjoyed doing anything together.

After college, I want to...

In the years after I graduated I hopped around a few times looking for employment I enjoyed. I ended up returning to the College and working in the Admissions Office. Through that I found a career in higher education. Now I'm attending graduate school for a degree in College Student Personnel Administration. I love it!
