My favorite part of my work is to help students make the most of general education. General education provides a powerful opportunity for students to explore new pathways and possibilities. I guide students to approach exploration of general education requirements with both intentionality and curiosity. For instance, undecided students can explore passions or interests, while students who have multiple interests can pursue a minor or another major, or even discovering employability or advance study options. Whichever their motivation, they will be developing critical life skills during their years on the Hilltop.

I can help with:

• Council on General Education
• Course or Experience Proposals
• Advanced General Education Policies
• Office and Staff Feedback & Recommendations
