My favorite thing about Bethel University

I love the small community vibe at a gorgeous campus located in between the downtown areas of St. Paul and Minneapolis. Bethel is a place where you will feel welcome and valued from your first interaction with enrollment to the day of your program graduation.

My favorite thing about the Twin Cities

The population of people living in the Twin Cities is one of the most diverse in the country. There are many ways to learn and experience different cultures in the Twin Cities—through volunteer opportunities, special events held throughout the year, visiting a new restaurant, going to the theatre, grocery shopping, walking the trails, engaging in activities at one of our beautiful lakes, or attending one of our many professional sporting events. People in Minnesota have a sense of humor, and "Minnesota nice" is a true reflection of the people here in the Twin Cities.

Before working at Bethel

Before working at Bethel, I worked with elementary students with special needs in the public school system for 14 years.
