Favorite spot on campus

My favorite spot on campus is the lawn in front of Towers Hall. There’s something pleasant about the tranquil mornings there, with the squirrels scampering around. It’s always so beautiful and peaceful to just sit and take in the scenery.

Why I love my job

I love my job because it allows me to work with a diverse group of students, helping them succeed and find their way even when they might feel it’s not possible. It’s incredibly rewarding to see them excel in their education and witness the positive changes they bring to their lives.

What makes Otterbein great

One of the things I love about Otterbein is its tight-knit community. Everyone is so kind and welcoming, which makes it feel like home away from home.
