Personal Note from Graduating Student: I have worked for Vickie since my Sophomore year. I will be graduating soon. It has been such a valuable experience for me. Vickie is an easy woman to work for. Her goal is to get us into graduate school, and we learn knowledge as we go. Vickie has helped me integrate my coursework into the job, which makes my classes more engaging. Seeing my coursework come to life in a relevant way has been very rewarding. I know I will be using this experience and mentorship in my application for grad school.
