"I began working for the College of Engineering, Architecture and Technology in January 2017 and transitioned to academic adviser in June 2017. Originally from Enid, Oklahoma, I came to Stillwater for college and never left. Completing my master's degree in December 2021 is a highlight of my personal and career growth. I love working with my students and supporting other advisors. I have one son who is in college at OSU and one who is working in Stillwater. I live with my husband, Benny, and our miniature schnauzer, Luke."

“I work with first-year students in the Office of Student Success and have been advising for a year. I love helping students find their passion on campus and teaching UNIV 1111 First-Year Seminar. One thing people find surprising is that I crochet my office decorations, and I have hidden Skyrim memorabilia, too!”

"I’m originally from Midwest City and graduated from the University of Oklahoma and Kansas State University. I’ve been an advisor in the College of Engineering, Architecture and Technology for six years. My favorite thing about being an advisor is getting to know our students and seeing them grow into creative, thoughtful, and empathetic architects, engineers, and leaders."

"I'm a learning specialist at Academic Services for Student-Athletes. I work with student-athletes throughout their careers to develop and enhance their academic skill set while balancing the demands of competing in Division I athletics. Something others may find surprising about me is that I was in the OSU Bands, where I played flute, piccolo, oboe, and saxophone throughout my career."

"I have been advising for approximately one year now. I currently advise in the Department of Microbiology and Molecular Genetics in the College of Arts and Sciences. My favorite thing about being an advisor is helping students with the next step, whatever that might be. Something other people would find surprising about me is the variety of skills I've taught myself, including many forms of art, photography, sewing, and my most recent interest in coding."

"I am an academic advisor in the College of Arts and Sciences. Before I came to OSU, I earned a Ph.D. in political theory from the University of Notre Dame. I’m from Indiana and enjoy creative writing and good board games."

"I have been an academic advisor at the Spears School of Business since 2022. My favorite thing about being an advisor is when my students come back to visit me after they’ve graduated! Something surprising about me is I raised five daughters and homeschooled them all."

"I am the director of academic advising for the Ferguson College of Agriculture. I have been advising on OSU's campus for just under seven years. My favorite thing about advising is making valuable connections with my students and helping them understand how to navigate their higher education journey. People would be surprised that I am trying to find a post-Ph.D. hobby, and right now, that hobby is cross stitch—it's not going well."

Honors College

"I am an academic advisor with the Spears School of Business, serving students pursuing degrees in Accounting, Finance, Economics, Data Analytics and Management Information Systems. I have been an advisor for 9 1/2 years and live vicariously through my students' OSU experiences and achievements. In my spare time, I love to garden and cook."

"I have been advising for five years in the College of Education & Human Sciences and love my job! My favorite thing about being an advisor is the short yet long transformation from a scared freshman to a confident and excited new graduate—growth is a beautiful thing! You might be surprised to learn that I’m a major Swiftie, that I love Disney, or that my husband and I own a dirt track race car!"

"I have worked as a learning specialist in Academic Services for Student-Athletes for over 20 years. I truly enjoy the energy of college students and love seeing them be successful in school and their sports. Something surprising about me is I have 3 degrees from OSU and am a loyal and true alum!"

OSU-Tulsa Undergraduate Academic Advising

"I'm an academic advisor for first-year students in the Office of Student Success.  I’ve been advising at OSU for over three years and have worked with a variety of majors. My favorite part of being an advisor is witnessing students have that 'aha' moment when they realize they are smarter than they give themselves credit for. Something surprising about me is that I am the first in my family to pursue a degree in agriculture and the only sibling with a higher education degree."
