Thank you to the alumni who volunteered to be Crew Chiefs and helped answer questions and support those on their virtual work crews!

What do you do for a living?
I'm currently serving as Director of Student Engagement and Success at Shorter University.
Tell us one fun fact about you!
I was Mickey Mouse for my kindergarten graduation, and I am a lifelong Disney fan!
How do you stay involved as an alumnus?
I am finishing a second term on the Alumni Council.
I really enjoyed being on the Heritage committee during part of that time, where I helped with some of the interviews for the oral history project. I love hearing people's Berry stories.
What part of Virtual Work Week are you most excited about?
I am excited about the new opportunities that we have with Virtual Work Week. I am hopeful that some of the folks that aren't able to make it back to campus for the traditional Work Week will find a way to be a part of this new Work Week.
What makes you passionate about the Blood Drive Crew?
I have several folks that I know and love that need blood, plasma, or platelets because of cancer or blood diseases they suffer from. I want to encourage folks to consider giving blood, plasma, or platelets. Each has a different shelf life in terms of how long they can be used and what they are used for.
