What is a good book you've read recently? The last thing I read was “Analytical Chemistry of Uranium: Environmental, Forensic, Nuclear, and Toxicological Applications.” Nah, I do not have time to sit down and read. However, I do like to research a lot of different subjects especially anything dealing with science.
What is your most favorite vacation you've ever taken or favorite place you've traveled to? I love going to Ireland. I have been a few times and each time gets better than the last time. I love the scenery and the people.
What is something most people don't know about you? I am an open book when it comes to people who know me. There’s not much people do not know about me.
What is your favorite thing about Texas A&M? My favorite part about A&M would have to be networking for both present and past students. “Once and Aggie always and Aggie!”
What is some advice you would give a new student at A&M? I would tell new students to get involved. There is something at A&M for everyone.
What is some advice you would give a MOM of a new student at A&M? I would tell new moms to breathe and relax - what you have taught your Aggie their whole life will see them through their college experience. You might not think they were listening but, believe me they were. Be there for them when they call and say they are sad and don't know anyone. Next week they will call you and say they LOVE school and have a lot of friends.
