Bio

I have had a professional career associated with higher education for 35 of the past 37 years since graduating from West Virginia University with an undergraduate business degree.

Outside the office I enjoy spending time with my family, partner, and friends.  Also enjoy seasonal work in the yard, building my professional photography portfolio, and always updating my "bucket list".   Despite my fear of heights I have ridden in a hot air balloon twice and gone skydiving twice. I hope to do both activities again and highly recommend them to others.  However, I don't recommend getting on the roof of your home to hang Christmas lights if you don't have someone holding the ladder for you when it's time to come down.

"Do what you can do while you can do it as you never know when you can't. As long as you are not hurting anyone do it now".  Connie Marano (my 86 year old mom)
