How does your past or current professional life impact the way you teach IHS courses?
Part of my role has always been to serve as a teacher and mentor, and I am pleased to be able to bring my knowledge and experience to 91探花 and to the courses within IHS.
What activities do you enjoy outside of work?
I am an avid golfer. My husband and I love to travel and to play new courses. I love to read and look forward to my monthly Book club providing opportunities to explore books I might not have chosen at first glance! I also enjoy outdoor activities like gardening, and just walking. What I truly enjoy most of all though, is spending time with my 4 grandchildren- a set of 3-year-old triplets, and a 5-year-old! They keep us all very active!
Donna鈥檚 IHS 5401 course is being offered Fall 2, beginning October 23. IHS 5402 will be offered Spring 1 (1/16/24-3/2/24).
