"My biggest recommendation is to do your homework. Also, be up for a challenge. If you are not challenged within your own department you will definitely be challenged during collaborative efforts.

"I believe the biggest challenge working at the University and moving to MiamI is the fast-paced environment. The culture in MiamI and at UM can be competitive and if you do not have a thick skin or the ability to adapt you will be left behind. The culture of the city is if you can cut it move out of the way."

"At this moment there is not much that I would change. We have one of the best college president's in the nation. Through her leadership we have seen an unprecedented climb within the Princeton Review's top 50 schools in the nation.
