Best Advice: As a previous prospective student, I toured different college campuses. One major draw for me to Bloomsburg is its impeccable academic reputation. The faculty/staff members are very caring here. 

Of all the places I lived, Bloomsburg is a place that feels like home through the caring culture of our university and local communities. There is always something to do at our university as well as positive activities in which to be involved.

Hobbies and Interests: I love traveling to different places; hockey, football, basketball, and baseball; hiking in PA/NY/NH/ME; and freshwater and ocean kayaking. I enjoy the NJ shore and different beaches in DE/MD.

Educational Background: Bloomsburg University: M.Ed. Counseling College Student Affairs and B.S.
