Favorite part of working in Res Life: I enjoy interacting with all of the residents on campus. Nights on-call are the best because I get to walk the campus and talk with everyone I meet, in the process I am learning more about campus life. Sheil residents are pretty much the best! I also enjoy working with the Residence Life Staff because they are an excellent group of people! This is an opportunity for me to grow and work with different personalities- it is an incomparable life skill experience.
About me: I graduated from Monmouth College in 2009 with my Bachelors Degree in Elementary Education with a concentration in Social Science. I was involved with Residence Life there for three years and appreciated the opportunity. I see my time at Lewis University as a time to expand my credential file, perfect my interpersonal relationship skills, take part in campus activities, and develop professionally.

Hall: Ryan and Cody Halls
Masters Degree: Public Safety Administration
Hobbies: Music, hanging with friends
Favorite part of working in Res Life: My favorite part of working in Res Life is having the opportunity to work hands on with so many different, great people. Between all of the RAs and other student leaders I meet and work with, and the residents of all the buildings that I help, I truly get the sense that the young men and women of Lewis are smart, beautiful people, both inside and out. Without all of these students my job would be boring and meaningless.
About me: I'm pretty laid back, but a responsible individual. I'm not much for drama. I'm a big believer in living and let live, and I love to tweet on Twitter. I do it almost constantly.

I have been afforded the opportunity to return to Lewis to start my MBA and am excited to start a new chapter in my life. If there is one thing I learned while in college it is that team work, integrity and accountability are crucial to the success of any project.
