Q&A

What do you enjoy most about working with UT undergrads? 

I love meeting students and seeing how we can use our strengths together to make their academic experience the best possible!

What is the most important advice you would give to new students? 

Be proactive instead of reactive! Plan as best as you can and set yourself up for success early in the semester – your future self will thank you!

What is your favorite place on campus? 

There’s no place better than Neyland on a Saturday in the Fall!

Why should students take advantage of the ASC? 

I want students to know that the ASC is not just a resource for when challenges arise, but that it’s for all students to use if they want to maximize their experience and achieve the goals they set for themselves. We can help students go from “good” to “great” when it comes to study habits and get the most out of their time here at UTK!
