1. What are you working on now that excites you the most?

At home, building a pickleball court in our backyard. At WesternU, working on the Office of the Provost and Student Government Association Fests! I have met some pretty amazing and talented people. I get to do what I love – bringing people together.

 2. What book has had the greatest impact on your life?

Many but the one I refer to often is Dog Training for Dummies.

3. What is your most prized possession?

My faith and my family. #blessed
Being married for almost 38 years!

4. What is something that surprises people about you?

Well, being the youngest of 9 I have survived on quick wit and an ability to have a pretty good right hook, lol.  I love to cook and can cook for a lot of people in one sitting.  I have often opened my home to feed many and cooked for homeless folks in Los Angeles who needed a warm meal.

5. What piece of advice would you give to five year old you?

When you get older, don’t go for the cute shoes. Be sensible! Or you’ll have foot surgery in your 50s!
