Hobbies
I love to spend time outdoors with family, hiking, running, playing soccer, and enjoying sports and music that my kids are participating in.
Favorite thing about being a faculty member
I am passionate about teaching/research. I love the small class sizes at Kettering that allow me to know my students well and offer them help or advice when they need it.
