What made you want to join Reynolds Community College?
I joined Reynolds Community College in April 2023. I was drawn to Reynolds because I wanted a position that would allow me to work closely with leadership, continue growing professionally, and further strengthen my administrative and organizational skills—all while contributing to meaningful, student-centered work.
What is your role at Reynolds?
I serve as the Administrative Assistant in the Dean of Students Office. Each day, I support the Dean by connecting students with the appropriate administrators who can address their questions, concerns, or needs. I also handle departmental purchasing through eVA, including ordering materials, supplies, subscriptions, and memberships. Additionally, I coordinate all travel arrangements for conferences and process related reimbursements through the college’s expense system.
What do you do in your spare time?
I love planning family vacations and finding creative ways to make our trips extra special. In my spare time, I enjoy being with my family—especially my niece and nephew, who keep life fun and memorable.
