I am an Academic Success Coach because: I really enjoy helping and coaching people to reach their goals, whatever those may be. I love seeing people succeed! I learned as an undergraduate student, far, far from home that a good adviser can make a lot of difference to one’s college experience, and that motivates me to be as good an adviser as I can be. Students need someone on their success team they know they can come to with issues, questions, problems, and successes. I love meeting and talking with new people – people have the most amazing stories! The coaching metaphor really fits the way KU Edwards Campus works in that we’re all on the same team!
