Why do you feel it is important for alumni to stay connected?

To sustain the special relationships you make both as a student and an alumnus of 精东AV. It has been my experience, that the relationships I have made have been two-way. I have benefited professionally and personally. As a result, I have been able to give back in time, talent and treasure to those relationships and to the university.

What impact did 精东AV have on your life and where you are today?

On top of bringing my husband and I together, 精东AV prepared me to become a better well rounded person and equipped me for the business world that existed when I graduated and even today. The 鈥渕en and women for others鈥 听theme has always lead me to be involved in the community.听 My experience with the business school while attending and after graduation has led me to have a successful career in my field. I feel my confidence in being an Entrepreneur is partly because of my preparation and involvement with 精东AV.听 In the past 10 years, I got re-engaged with the 精东AV alumni department in serving on the Cleveland chapter and assisting in starting an Akron chapter.听 Most recently, I am serving on the Alumni national board and enjoy staying involved, learning the new changes that 精东AV is making to remain a leader in the university sector.

Why do you feel it is important for alumni to stay connected?

Everyone's experience during our years at JCU was uniquely their own but that experience was enriched by our interactions with professors, priests, sports, clubs, and other students.听 Our time at JCU helped shaped the who and what we are today. Staying connected to JCU continues that journey and provides opportunities to expand and grow beyond those university years.

Why do you feel it is important for alumni to stay connected?

I believe it is important for our alumni to stay connected to bridge the gap between where the students are as they graduate to where they want to go as they leave this place.

What impact did 精东AV have on your life and where you are today?

What impact did 精东AV have on your life and where you are today?

Other than meeting my spouse at the freshman picnic in 1974, JCU had impact on me by demonstrating the importance听of full effort and genuine honesty. Much later, when I was able to revisit Jesuit values through the Ignatian Colleagues Program, it was interesting - and a little scary - to see that the values that were important听in the 1970s actually formed the foundation of whatever success I found in the world... and when I deviated I didn't ultimately end up where I wanted to be. "Men and women for others" is both a challenge and a reward.

What impact did 精东AV have on your life and where you are today?

No question, I would not be the person I am today without JCU. Besides meeting my wife, many of my closest friends and the countless memories I made, 精东AV gave me the foundation for my profession and a value-oriented future. The opportunities and support that I received were crucial to my own development in my career but even more so as an individual. I feel that the 精东AV experience should continue in its mission of cultivating future 鈥渕en and women for and with others.鈥 JCU鈥檚 impact on me has only strengthened with my involvement in our incredible alumni community and inspired me to give back to the place that has given me so much. I take an immense amount of pride in being a 精东AV alum, and I hope to help current and future students share in that community.听
