 I have a great appreciation for everything in Colorado. I grew up in Boulder. We love bike riding and hiking. So I've been married 33 years, met my husband in a library, my husband's a librarian. After all these years, he took up the ukulele. It's been so fun to have him join in a musical venture with me. I'm very involved in music and then I have my library career. So they both dovetailed nicely. We have two adult married daughters. I have parents and brothers in this area, so family is a big thing for me. Gail is the head librarian at CCU. A great lady. The faculty can't function without a good library team. And librarians are pretty much behind the scenes. They don't get up in front of classes and talk a lot. Gail does not in any way minimize the contribution that she makes. When we work together to provide the best resources for our students, she's passionate about it. She's just made such a fabulous contribution here. The most important thing to me is that we're fully supporting all the programs and the curricula and everything that's important to CCU. The library is still very much the heart of an institution. You probably want one of them. In the classroom, they come to the library and it's a neutral place, but it's where they explore on their own, not only getting the research about a discipline, but they're starting to see how they could speak to it. Gail's personally impacted me by making sure I know that she's there if I need anything, if I need help or just someone to listen. She's very invested in our personal lives and making sure that we're okay. She's very warm and open. Something that strikes me as amazing about Gail is that she's willing to help people in every day, sometimes small little things. She's just a really great person. My favorite part about the job is not the books or even the databases and the resources, it's the interacting with the students and the faculty. It's the people.
