What I like about being a Maverick: The students at Minnesota State Mankato continue to bring new ideas and passions to our community.  I enjoy working with students as they develop their academic and career goals while learning to be leaders in the world around them.

I also serve in the community as a lacrosse coach and as President of the Mankato Area Lacrosse Association.

Hobbies: Running, youth lacrosse, music, and art. I am also an avid supporter of the Burns kids various activities.
