What is your favorite memory of CMU?
Running out onto the football field as part of the Marching Chips. There is no better feeling than hearing the crowd and knowing those around you are excited to be a part of something bigger than themselves.

What has your work life taught you?
That what may seem insignificant to you could be astronomically important to someone else. That the truth is important to tell, even when it's sometimes hard to hear, and earning someone's respect and trust is the highest honor they can give you.

What has been your biggest accomplishment since graduation?
I was hired to teach the first-ever broadcast meteorology course CMU has offered. It's a new way to help students prepare for a career as a broadcast meteorologist. It's an honor that cannot be put into words, and one that means a lot to a person who struggled and persevered to graduate and succeed in their career path.
