I oversee the mission, vision and goals of the Veterans First Program, as well as
compliance with the requirements for enforcing VA educational benefits with the Department
of VA. Possessing doctorate coursework under my belt, along with a Masters degree
in Counseling, and Bachelor's degree in Communications, I have over 20 years of higher
education experience service students. As the daughter of a Navy veteran, I am excited
to assist veterans who have earned their educational benefits and assist them in the
attainment of their educational goals.
