She has worked in that capacity since 2007 and has distinguished herself by her active involvement not only on the U of M campus, but also at the state level of NODA, serving as a Tennessee State Coordinator.  She was instrumental in persuading NODA to hold its 2013 Southern Regional Orientation Workshop at the University of Memphis.  The event will be the largest conference the University has ever held.
