Dana has always been the "new kid," having moved many times, so inclusivity is a passion of hers. She attended Texas Tech and changed my major after freshman year from art to journalism. She went to graduate school at University of North Texas in a completely different area, choosing to major in Education. Dana encourages students to know that it is okay to change directions as you grow and learn and discover who you are and where you feel most comfortable. She has lived in Norman for over 20 years now with her husband and two sons. They live in a 108-year-old house near campus with big trees!
Holiday lights in Burr Park.
Student energy keeps me feeling young. I love meeting students from all over the world!
Go to class even if it's not required. Challenge yourself to grow. Be friendly!
