Thanks for stopping by and meeting me! I hope that you'll consider making Trevecca a part of your story like I did.
I had two-and-a-half years at the University of Tennessee-Knoxville right out of high school and, of course, had a little too much fun. My mom said, "You’re coming home." So life happened. I got married and had kids, but I always wanted to go back and finish. I literally watched the MHR (now the Bachelor’s of Arts in Management and Leadership) for 10 years. All of the fears that I hear now when I talk to students—those were all my fears. Can I even do this now? Will the younger students be better than me? Finally, I did what Christians are supposed to do, and I prayed about it. When I prayed, I knew I needed to go. I got laid off from my job in 2010, and my husband said, "You’ve always wanted to go back to school. Now’s the time." Four months after graduation, I got hired at Trevecca. A year later, I started the master’s program in organizational leadership. The more I looked at it, I thought, That’s me. That’s what I do. So now, I’m really even more motivated to be the best that I can be and just tell more people, "I did it!" After 30-plus years, I did it. And so can you.
