My early career was in business management. I worked for various companies as a general or district manager in Florida, Colorado, and Virginia. After 25 years of management, I wanted to pursue my love for floriculture. I worked with the Town of Bridgewater as a Team Lead for the beautification program for 14 years which eventually led me to JMU in a similar role for Facilities Managment. Many years of working with JMU's Facilities Managment prepared for my current role as SPCE's Building & Operations Coordinator for the Ice House. 

I love my role here with SPCE. I love interacting with our customers and students. Providing a safe, welcoming, and joyful environment for our staff and visitors is very rewarding to me, and I take great pride in this. As you will see when you visit our building, I also still get to pursue my love of floriculture.
