Department: Psychology

I am an Assistant Professor in the Psychology Department and have recently become a proxy for Faculty Senate. I have attended several Senate meetings and have become increasingly interested in participating in Senate discussions surrounding the issues central to WCU’s campus climate, faculty, and students. I believe strongly in the value of public higher education, and plan to advocate for our continued opportunity to provide high quality, affordable education. I am committed to working diligently to represent faculty interests on this and other issues of importance. I would appreciate your vote.
