Graduates, it's that time of year again! As you embark on this next chapter of your life, I want to share some advice that has helped me tremendously: Dream big. With dreams, all things are possible. Remember to always keep your goals in sight and work hard towards them. Best of luck on your future endeavors! #DreamBig #GraduationAdvice

Advice to new Pepperdine grads: Creatively and intentionally develop purpose, service, and leadership in your work. It's possible to be a self-centered worker in the nonprofit sector, just as much as it's possible to be an accountant or marketing exec living out selfless service. Don't let assumptions about your industry or seniority limit your intentional cultivation and application of core values and character. What would you add? 💙🧡 🌊

Communicators need to listen. In my experience, when an underrepresented community member shares a story, it's usually a good one. I can't tell you how often dominant-narrative bias has prevented people from seeing the value in invisible narratives, the stories of lived experiences. I recently spoke on DEI communications: authentic storytelling, leveraging channels and building capacity. You can only do that by building listening skills. It's a practice that takes daily work and is part of the necessity of telling stories WITH the community instead of FOR them. When Luis Alonzo Garcia shared this photo with me, I knew I had to listen. I also knew that this needed to be shared broadly. A quick post later: it's a win for our community, platforms and strategic goals. I'm happy to see it perform well and even happier to see better representation and the sheer pride of the first-generation community being amplified. So, the next time someone shares an underrepresented story, listen. You may not end up with a published piece right away, but if you keep an open mind, you will start to see ways to bridge the narrative gap. There's a greater story waiting to be told. #DEICommunications #FirstGenerationCollegeStudent

Year 4 - Let’s go! The Monday after the July 4th signifies a new year in the world of college athletics. A new fiscal year starts & focus is shifted to the 2024-25 academic year & athletic season. This is our New Year. Here are my New Year resolutions… 1. Be more present and focused with on campus relationships. This includes more face time for coaches, staff, & student-athletes. Less meetings and office work - more conversations. 2. Don’t just exist and survive but prosper. We have been dealt some major hits in the higher education world. Work to overcame and succeed despite barriers. 3. Live my sports mom era. A question I often get asked is, “Can you balance being a mom and AD?” The answer is yes. With two kids in multiple sports, you can’t go to everything. You will miss some things, & that is ok. You have to pick and choose, & sometimes work takes priority. But I will effectively plan & enjoy the times I am present. 4. My health as a priority. It’s more than being a healthy weight. As a person in my 40s, my focus is living a long, healthy, comfortable, & active life. So Happy New Year to all those who celebrate! 3 years down at Rockhurst, hoping to make year 4 the best.
