The decision to press 'GO' was the hardest part. After that I hit the ground running and have never looked back. The Xavier brand speaks for itself- it's recognized both locally and nationally and allows you to get in and out in just two years.

I enjoyed small class sizes where everybody knows your name. The faculty devoted time and cared about my academic success. A month before graduation, I was offered a promotion at TriHealth and within two years I became head of the Aquatics department.
