About
I graduated from Eastern Illinois University in 2004 with a Bachelor of Science in Communications with an emphasis on Radio and Television Broadcasting. Following graduation, I continued my job with Barnes and Noble in Springfield, Illinois, as a bookseller, then a Lead Bookseller/Head Cashier, Digital Sales Lead, and acting Community Business Development Manager. I joined SIU School of Medicine in 2018 and am enjoying the challenge of learning new operations and procedures. I am looking forward to assisting the faculty and administrators of the Department of Population Science and Policy to help the residents of central and southern Illinois.
