Fun Facts

Favorite Ouachita memory
My favorite Ouachita memory happened my sophomore year on a snow day. I saw the weather forecast calling for lots of snow, and afternoon classes were cancelled. My friend Drew and I caught a ride home with my dad who teaches here at Ouachita, and we brought our Polaris side-by-side back across town on back roads through the snow so we could pull our friends around the lower intramural fields on an inner tube. It was awesome.

What do you wish students knew about Ouachita?
I wish students knew that graduating from Ouachita gives them such an advantage in the next stage of life. Whether they're going into graduate school or starting their first job, they'll be well prepared and connected to others in their field.

What is your favorite study spot on campus and why?
My favorite study spot on campus is the first floor corner table of the library in the reference section. It's a prime study spot because you're right next to tons of literary sources, and the cafeteria is just a few steps away when you need a snack!

What do you like most about working with students?
What I enjoy most about working with students is having genuine conversations that help them move forward. They may be in the initial steps of applying, trying to piece together financial aid, wrapping up a campus tour or chasing down a scholarship they really want, but getting to link arms with students and families to help them get where they need to be is a rewarding task.
