About the Elections Committee Chairperson
I am honored and excited to serve as the Elections Chairperson for KACADA! I think this organization will enhance our quality of academic advising across the Commonwealth, as well as provide an excellent source of networking for academic advisors. By becoming a member of KACADA we can all work together to seek ways to improve processes to help our students get enrolled in college and achieve their dreams, as well as creating an excellent support system for highly motivated academic advisors. I strongly believe that in order to improve our retention and success rates that we must give our students a first-rate start on their journey in higher education. I have worked in higher education for more than 20 years with most of that experience being in various departments within Student Services. Three years ago my duties changed when I became one the first advisors in our Center for Student Engagement (CSE). The CSE was established to be a prospective student’s first encounter when enrolling at Big Sandy. I work with new students in academic planning and career exploration, as well as give advice to students who have undecided program plans. I completed my Associate of Arts Degree at Big Sandy Community and Technical College and my Bachelor of Arts Degree in Organizational Leadership at Northern Kentucky University. I am currently pursuing a graduate degree in Adult and Higher Education at Morehead State University.
