Personal Interests

Travel and exploring cultural diversity are my greatest interests and have informed my educational and career paths. I studied in Costa Rica, Peru and Mexico, and as a bilingual librarian in a variety of settings (public, university & community college) before joining Colorado Mountain College. I have loved learning something new - about people and the world - every day as I helped students with their research.

Programs

Prior to working as an ADI, I served as adjunct faculty in HSE/GED, ESL & Go2Work (LINK to Success) programs.
