鈥淏eing able to serve as an educational leader is an honor. Education has been a beautiful adventure in my life. Education has been my pathway out of poverty and limited opportunities. This adventure has led me to exciting paths, difficult terrains, challenging obstacles, beautiful connections, and rewarding accomplishments. Education has been the key element for me that has opened up a world of opportunities and connections that I will forever cherish. I hope to instill this same appreciation and respect for education in the lives of those that I lead. Then may they go forward and do the same. May our ripples change the world.鈥What excites you most about being part of the Austin Peay community?
