Additional Information:

  • My favorite thing about Ashland University is the quality of our students. Their enthusiasm for learning and dedication to personal growth consistently impresses me. I appreciate how they balance their academic pursuits with involvement in extracurricular activities and service projects, bringing diverse perspectives to our classroom discussions. Watching our students develop into confident, capable professionals is truly rewarding and exemplifies what makes Ashland University special.
  • A little-known fact about me is that I enjoy growing flowers. I find gardening to be a relaxing hobby that allows me to spend time outdoors. I enjoy seeing the plants grow and bloom over time, and I like to experiment with planting different varieties. It's a nice complement to my academic work.
