I am a college professional with nine years of experience in a higher education setting and an honorably discharged senior-level manager with over 20 years of military experience. My current role as the Student Veteran Specialist within the Diversity Relations Dept. allows me to work with a diverse student population and provides me with knowledge of most aspects of the college's policies and procedures. Ability to lead and mentor in a high-paced environment demonstrated in stressful and often hazardous and unpredictable situations. Exceptional organizational skills, specifically in strategic planning and project management/meeting goals. Able to professionally assess a situation, address significant issues, and make timely and intelligent decisions to resolve the problem. I have been assigned many leadership roles and efficiently carried out those above me duties when required, including team development and dispute resolution, all vital to ensure student and customer satisfaction. My experience is a valuable asset to my institution.
