I am a dependable, solutions driven director with deep knowledge of university finance and budget, research core facility administration, payroll and human resources administration, supervision/operations management, and project management. I have spent the last fifteen years at the University of Oregon and have been fortunate to grow through serving in five positions with progressively responsible experience during these years. Prior to UO service I worked in corporate, legal and academic settings; including assisting the Dean of the OSU Honors College in Corvallis. I currently serve on the Faculty Advisory Council as I was asked to fill in after an elected OA stepped down. I would enjoy continued service in this position and to serve a full term to help provide feedback as needed in the exciting and challenging situations we will face in the next two years at the institution.
