Favorite Quote: A good laugh overcomes more difficulties and dissipates more dark clouds than any other one thing. Laura Ingalls Wilder.
Best Advice for College Students: Don’t feat the failure. It isn’t the failure, or setback, that defines you. It’s how you pick yourself up and treat others in the process. So, put yourself out there, try new things – join student organizations, study abroad, seek internships, dream big.
Favorite OSU memory: Walkaround at Homecoming! Whether it’s memories of attending as a student or creating new memories now attending with my husband and kids, Walkaround is one of my favorite OSU traditions.
