  • 4 years fly by quickly; enjoy it all!
  • Experiment with your electives

Fun Facts

I met my husband at Purdue and ditched my Purdue graduation to elope to Hawaii. I love travelling and spending time with my adult children and their dogs.  I really enjoy games of all kinds, especially crossword puzzles, Sudoku, Euchre, and board/dice games.
