What do you love about ORU?

I love the beautiful campus, the friendliness of the faculty and staff, and the diversity of the students. What a wonderful place to receive an excellent education and establish a deep walk with the Lord!

What's your favorite thing to do in Tulsa?

I love walking and shopping on the Riverwalk and Utica Square. I enjoy going to my son's games and going to various sporting events with him in Tulsa.

Why do you enjoy working with International Students?

I enjoy getting to know about their culture, as well as getting to introduce them to the American culture. Moving to the States can be a big deal and most students are leaving a lot behind to come study at ORU. I get to spend months corresponding with these students and when they finally arrive, we feel a special connection, even though we have never met before. It's an amazing bond.
