As the Director of Veteran Student Services at Oregon Tech, I lead the administration and improvement of support programs for military, veteran, and dependent/spouse students. I have over 10 years of experience in veteran outreach and support, working with on campus services, the VA, and veteran service organizations to provide effective access to health care and education benefits for student veterans in Southern Oregon. I am also a veteran myself, having served in the US Navy on active duty and reserve for 16 years. I hold a BA in History from the University of Nevada, Reno, and I recently completed a MA in Economics from George Mason University. My mission is to empower service members, veterans, and their family members to succeed in higher education and beyond, by providing them with the resources, guidance, and advocacy they need.
