Title: Custodian

Outside of 91²Ö¿â professional affiliations/hobbies: 

• Member of Sons and Daughters of Herman Club

What inspired you to work in Higher Education? 

• My husband and I were owners of Jordan’s Family Restaurant and in 2008, we unfortunately had to close due to the declining economy.  A frequent customer that was a 91²Ö¿â employee would come in her uniform and talked about the benefits of working at 91²Ö¿â and how much she enjoyed working there.  

What motivates you/what gets you out of bed in the morning? 

• My day at 91²Ö¿â starts very early, at 4:00 am.  I’m one of the first people on campus getting the building ready to welcome students and faculty/staff to a safe and clean environment. 

Why do you like working at 91²Ö¿â (and in CAE)? 

• I have been with the college for about 10 years, starting off in Van Duesen and then coming over to the Aeronautics and Engineering building when the college moved.  I have made many friendships along the way here in CAE.

What is your favorite part of your job?  

• I enjoy seeing the students and faculty/staff arriving at campus with the daylight.

What are you most looking forward to seeing in the future of CAE? 

• I’m excited to see the college grow, welcoming many new students, faculty and staff with the new addition to the building.

What is a fun fact about yourself? 

• On any given weekend, you might find me at Mountaineer Park enjoying time with my friends and family.

What is your biggest accomplishment to date? 

• My two children are my greatest joy.  My son, Andrew, is 34 years old and is a professional photographer.  He recently won an award for  Best Photographer of Cleveland.  My daughter, Hannah, is 23 years old and a recent 91²Ö¿â graduate with an Applied Conflict Management degree.
