Hi! My name is Audrey and I am a graduate of MSUM's Counseling and Student Affairs Master's program. As the Assistant Director of Transfer Admissions, I support our Transfer Admissions team and work with students and their families, transferring or seeking a second undergraduate degree throughout the admissions process and support them in making a decision regarding and transitioning from another college to attend MSUM! I also help non-degree seeking students who are interested in taking a class through MSUM to transfer back to another school or to prepare for graduate school admission requirements. I appreciate the opportunity I have in making connections with future Dragons! I see Dragon Pride on campus through the diligence and commitment our students have to their education and one another. I think the community that develops on campus is astounding and I am so proud that I am able to represent that to our future students!

I am a Licensed Professional Counselor, holding licensure in both Minnesota and Wisconsin. My mental health experience is in a variety of areas, including the public school setting, the college setting, community outreach, and the outpatient setting. At the University of Minnesota-Duluth, I earned my MA in Counseling Psychology with an emphasis in both community and K-12 counseling. I earned my Ph.D. at Capella University in Psychology with an emphasis in Industrial and Organizational Psychology. This is my fifth year at MSUM. You can find me teaching General Psychology, and the vast array of human development courses: Lifespan Development, Child and Adolescent, Adulthood and Aging, and Development Across Cultures. I also teach the Psychology of Women and Psychology of Food and Eating. I also have experience teaching Health Psychology, Personality Psychology, Career and Lifespan Exploration, Psychology of Adjustment, and Abnormal Psychology courses. My research interests are mindless eating and attitudes towards food and weight, and adaption to the workplace/education setting. My goal as an assistant professor is to make the courses I teach relevant to everyday life, create opportunities for personal growth and self-awareness, and help students make connections to the MSUM and greater F-M community. I am the advisor for the MSUM Psychology Club and Psi Chi. I am a certified Safe Zone resource.

Hello! My name is Scott and I grew up in a small town of 200 people, Sheyenne, ND. I work with students from both near and far, as I am the representative for students from the local territory of Cass and Clay counties, as well as students from outside Minnesota, Wisconsin, or the Dakotas. I'm proud to be a part of the MSUM Student Affairs team to help high school seniors with the transition to college. My Dragon Pride comes from seeing those students transform from interested applicants to being involved students that are making a real difference on campus.
