Favorite Coe Memory:

Meeting my amazing wife (also a Coe grad) on a random, last minute trip to a concert in Dallas, TX (because I had a car). This is followed by a fire starting under me while I was on stage in the middle of the musical “Assassins”—the director’s wife actually had to stop the show and escort the people of the packed show out while I stayed calm and in character until they were out and the fire department arrived. 

What helped you decide to serve Coe by being an Alumni Council member?

I attribute my success to Coe and the U.S. Army, both of which offered me exceptional opportunities and challenges that help me grow, even today. Coe helped give me a life I never imagined and my faculty are lifelong friends too. On the council, we want to make Coe even better for students and alumni alike.
