What do you love most about ��?
As a single mom I spent most of my time with my two small kids when I decided to complete my degree. I was amazed how much of a family it felt at ��. So much so that my kids could not wait till their next event. We loved the atmosphere and vibe of everyone at ��.

Why do you serve on the Executive Committee for the Alumni Association Board of Directors?
I volunteered for years at �� and was always looking for ways I could help or give back to my �� community. About a year ago I felt like I wanted to do more so I joined the Alumni Association and now that's transitioned into the Executive Committee. It feels great to give back to the college.

What do you enjoy doing in your free time?
These days my kids are older and I just recently became a grandmother. I spend a lot of my time with my granddaughter as well as reading history books and DIY's. I enjoy being able to say I did certain projects around the house. I also love art so if I can find the time, I'll work on some art (painting, sketching and cross stitch) and baking.

What do you love most about ��?

The thing I love most about �� is the way the community comes together to support the community. As a student, everyone always supported one another and shared strong bonds. As an alum, I see this in our students, faculty, and staff. It truly is an amazing thing to see this community grow and maintain its commitment to the �� way!

Why do you serve on the Executive Committee for the Alumni Association Board of Directors?

As an alum, I feel it is important that we give back to the community that gave us so much during our time at school. Serving as an executive board member is just one of the many ways we can give back. I want to help ensure that �� students transition to alumni and share that sense of responsibility and care. Through programs such as the Alumni Association Board we can support current students, maintain time-honored traditions, and enjoy the best that �� has to offer!

What do you enjoy doing in your free time?

In my free time, I enjoy spending quality time with my friends and family. I love exploring downtown Bethlehem and the surrounding Lehigh Valley at our great restaurants, breweries, and entertainment. My favorite thing is going to Vespers and the holiday celebrations at the school!
