Salem Through My Eyes
I love the diversity of the student population at Salem and the sense of community that being a small liberal arts college provides.
Fun Facts
- I am an avid learner of new things and love to transmit what I learn in the offering of new courses for my students.
- I love to sit at the Back Porch and converse with my classes while our pampered squirrels attend my lectures.
- Autumn/Fall is my favorite season at Salem — if you know, you know!
