About Me

My husband, Jason and two children Olivia, 9, and Liam, 7 live in Seward. When my children are not keeping me busy with sports and activities like 4-H, soccer, wrestling, swim team, and basketball, we enjoy traveling. I am working on a PhD in Human Science focusing on Ag Leadership, Education, and Communication with the plan to have it completed in December 2022.

About Me

I was born and raised in Ho Chi Minh City, the busiest city of Viet Nam. Therefore, transferring to the peaceful Lincoln, NE was quite a change that I've loved since.  Right after coming to the US, I started an M.B.A program at UNL. I then worked at the NE Department of Labor and the Department of Health and Human Services before coming to the Department of Animal Science. It has been intriguing to come back to UNL in a different role. 

What is your position in the department?

Finance/Grants Coordinator

Animal Science Nsider - Fall 2020 Edition Wednesday, March 10, 2021
We are pleased to present the Fall 2020 Edition of the Animal Science Nsider. The year 2020 is one we will not soon forget due to all the complications associated with the novel human coronavirus (SARS-CoV-2) commonly referred to as COVID-19. I could not be more proud of our students, faculty, staff and alumni for how they have navigated the necessary changes that occurred in our teaching and learning, research and outreach as a result of this pandemic. Caring, compassionate, resilient, gritty are a few words to describe what has been witnessed during the past eight months.
