My previous positions include career coach, enrollment advisor, and human resources specialist. I have a bachelor degree in business education from Winona State University and a master degree in Organization and Management (Human Resources Management emphasis) from Capella University.

I am a Career Development Facilitator, Certified Life Coach & Certified Career Coach! I am proud to be a Career Development Facilitator (CDF). I was fortunate to complete CDF program with two of my colleagues. The CDF program provided my team with ample information to help prospective students choose an appropriate career path. The instructor, Marie Smith, was extremely knowledgeable and encouraging. I highly recommend CDF. The Certified Life Coach & Certified Career Coach program enhanced my knowledge of theoretical approaches and practical applications. I truly enjoyed each program!
