I have been working in University Relations' creative services office since before I graduated from RU in May 1992. It has been instructive and exciting to be part of the evolution of RU's identity.

As art director for Creative Services, my major emphases are the RU Foundation and the design of the RU Magazine.

Outside of work, I enjoy volunteering for organizations that promote and preserve regional art and culture. I also enjoy feeding my obsession with current events and indulging my addiction to periodicals and books.

With my family's roots in Southwest Virginia and my love of the region's history, geography and people, it seems natural to be part of the RU family.
