About Michelle...
I am a two-time graduate of Central Michigan University. (I really do have maroon and gold blood!) Providing outstanding service to CMU students is a concept I take very seriously. As a result, I direct the service offerings in two areas—general academic advising and new student orientation. In my spare time, I enjoy family time, with my son Ethan and my husband Steve. Around Mt. Pleasant, we can be seen rooting for CMU at athletic events, playing at the SAC and walking Gigi, our black Labrador retriever.
