 Admissions Counselor
Where you were born?
Carlsbad, NM (New Mexico is the Land of Enchantment, and yes, I too am enchanting).
What did you study in college?Management Information Systems
What were your favorite involvements in college and why?Resident Assistant because I loved the dorm atmosphere and all it entailed. I also enjoyed Worship in the Greek because there's no better way to spend a Monday night than worshiping with fellow believers under the stars. Intramural sports were always fun too. I had the same teammates in basketball for all four years.
What's a word or phrase that describes you?"Amiable"
What's your favorite San Diego past time? Beach bonfires at Ocean Beach or Shelter Island, Sea World (I recommend the annual pass), bowling every Wednesday at Sunset Bowl, ice cream at Coronado Island, mountain biking or hiking at Mission Trails or up in Poway, and Chargers games (even though I'm actually a Broncos fan).
What advice would you give to an incoming PLNU student? Take advantage of dorm life. It's the only time in your life that you can live in such an energetic, passionate, intentional community of more than 100 students.
If you could be any animal, what would you be and why? A dolphin because it would be fun to harass fishermen.
