Information Analyst
College of Education
YEARS IN CURRENT POSITION: Four.
JOB DESCRIPTION: “I am responsible for creating and maintaining databases; creating presentations, Web sites, and newsletters; providing support and training of staff and faculty with computer software, computer purchases and helping with computer problems.
A TYPICAL DAY FOR ME: “I do a little bit of everything. Right now we’re doing classroom and computer lab renovation, so I am overseeing the progress on that. I am also working on a budget database for our business office. I handle any computer problems that people might have in the dean’s office. I work on any special projects the dean may need, and I also am responsible for the creation and management of the employee database for the college. Every day brings me something new and different.”
OTHER UGA EXPERIENCE: “I was a student worker in the dean’s office from 1990 to 1993, and then I was a graduate student worker in a similar job in the same office until 1996. I was on the football team from 1990 until 1992.
MOST REWARDING PART OF MY JOB: “Helping people. I like to use my skills to help solve problems for people and make it easier to do their jobs.”
MOST CHALLENGING PART OF MY JOB: “The university schedule is challenging because of the way my job works. I will get several projects that people will want at the same time, and then there are other weeks where nothing is going on.”
IF I WASN’T DOING THIS JOB, I’D MOST LIKE TO: “I would want to be doing computer support or something computer-related.”
OFF-THE-JOB INTERESTS: “I enjoy playing racquetball, golf and softball. I go to the movies and to Atlanta a lot, and I also like cars, and most any high-tech gadgets.”
A MOVIE I’D RECOMMEND TO OTHERS: “Pay it Forward. It was a really neat movie, and I liked the message it gives to the viewers about doing good deeds.”
THE PERSON I ADMIRE MOST: “My dad because he has taught me a lot about respect.
THE ISSUE THAT CONCERNS ME MOST ABOUT TODAY’S WORLD: “Education and the lack of support that schools and teachers receive from parents and the community.
