Always being a cheerleader for the city of Winona and all of the arts and culture we have to offer here off and on the university campuses, I am excited to put this eagerness into action with Visit Winona! I am director of the Partnership Program, allowing area businesses and organizations the opportunity to collaborate in showcasing the best the region has to offer its visitors and residents alike.

I was happy to be a part of the Saint Mary's University community by teaching "Multimedia Production" where I focused students' attention on iMovie, Audacity and Photoshop in a project-based environment. I also previously taught "Digital Communications Strategies"--a course highlighting the importance of social media in the workforce, as well as multimedia skills. Projects included audio, video and images, and I taught Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn, Pinterest, Email Marketing and more.
