Why did you choose Viterbo as your next employer? Viterbo offered a position that aligns well with my career passion (instructional design) and desire to work in higher education. As I learned more about Viterbo and Viterbo values, I wanted to be a part of that environment and mission.
Of the five Viterbo values, which resonates with you most and why? Integrity. I believe that if we are true to ourselves and others, then we will have greater respect for one another and lead and serve with sincerity.
Hobbies: Anything outside, really. I spend a fair amount of time biking, hiking, and in the garden.
Anything about your family you would like to share: Though new to Viterbo, my husband Rob and I are not new to the community. Rob has been with AVS Group for 25 years. We have two children: Elyse (10) and Erik (7) that keep us very busy with swim practice and baseball games.
