What do you do in your job? I advise new students in their first semester at Rochester College helping them to plan their classes and begin to consider what direction they plan to go in their lives. I also work with outside groups to plan job fairs and provide students and alumni with information in relation to employment opportunities both while they are in college and once they graduate.
Hobbies/favorite things to do – I love to hang out with my husband and kids, both at our home in Romeo and also at our little cottage at Higgins Lake. I also like to watch college football, boating, reading, listening to great music, hosting brunches and dinner parties, growing flowers and herbs, going for walks, Netflix, and hibernating in the winter!
