Manager of Undergraduate Programs
She goes out of her way to work with and accommodate all her students, and she does it with a smile every day. I don't know what this department would be without her!
Shannon has been my advisor for the past four years and I could not have made it thus far without her. She has always given me the best advice both academically and personally and has made my time here at CSU incredibly special.
Shannon devotes her time to the success of her students, and I have seen that behind the scenes. Her dedication to service shines through every day.
