She is always energetic, personable, prepared, positive and inspiring! When put on the spot with challenging topics from students, she responds in such a manner that students do not feel humiliated or ostracized, all while giving them positive advice for successful life. She even takes time to motivate me. Therefore, she can only have my highest recommendation.
