What's your favorite course (so far)?

My favorite course so far has been Cross-Disciplinary Perspectives in Educational Theory, Research, and Practice. I loved how it tied together theory with practice and how applicable it was, allowing us to start conducting background research on potential dissertation topics. Plus, the professor was incredibly supportive, encouraging, and helpful as we embarked on our Ed.D. journey.

What's your favorite spot in Williamsburg?

I love trying new local coffee shops, and my go-to is 1607 Coffee Company (plus it is perfect for gluten free options!).

What's a fun fact about you?

I won a trip to Egypt through Dr. Pepper's Indiana Jones contest back in 2008. People actually win things from entering the codes on their bottle caps!
