What is the best part about working at Milwaukee Career College?
Meeting all the students and being able to truly get to know them. Perhaps the most rewarding moment is seeing the graduate get the job they wanted or need and being able to share in that joy. Equally great about working at MCC is being able to work side by side with a great team of faculty and staff that truly care about the students. What is so unique about this school is the faculty and staff that will go out of their way to help you succeed and achieve your dream.
Do you have any advice for someone thinking about enrolling in school?
I would tell them to truly consider where they want to be in life and then schedule an appointment to come into the school and take a tour. Talk to the faculty and staff and see if you could picture yourself as a student here. Also, research your field of interest and see if it might be a good fit for you.
When you’re not here working with students, how do you like to spend your time?
In the summers I like to go hiking or take long walks in a nearby park. I also enjoy spending time with my husband either talking in a coffee shop, playing video games, or just relaxing and enjoying a movie. In the winters I enjoy snuggling up indoors with a good book.

What is the best part of working at Milwaukee Career College?
The people…associates and students alike. We have such a diversified group that every day is new and fresh.
What advice would you give to someone enrolling in school?
Go into the school experience with an “I CAN” attitude. Self doubt can be your worst enemy. Also, if things don’t seem to be going as smoothly as you hoped, talk to someone! we are all here to help you be the best “you” you can be.
When you’re not here working with students, how do you like to spend your time?
I love to cook and create my own recipes. Shopping is my nemesis…haha! Or, moreso my husbands, I really like to shop. Summertime you’ll find me in the backyard floating in the pool. Love a good book! Also like to write poems and short stories.

Ask yourself what is important to you! If the answer is learning in a family-like, hands on-environment, then you should enroll at MCC. Our associates are invested in your success and want to see you succeed.

I spend most of my time chasing after my twin girls, cooking or making art. I love summers in Milwaukee. Summerfest, riding my bike on the lakefront, grilling and just hanging out is so much fun.

The best part of working at MCC is knowing that you are supported by your coworkers. Every associate that works for MCC truly believes in the mission of changing student lives. It is awesome to be able to see students come through the program and then be able to find their dream job following completion.
What advice would you give to someone thinking about enrolling in school?
The best advice I would give prospective students is to be ready to fully commit to the program 100%. Karen Bertling – MA Graduate said it best at our Fall Graduation in 2012 when she said, “Why sign up, if you’re not going to sign in.” Take advantage of the support services put in place!

When I’m not working at MCC I can be found spending time with my wife, traveling, bowling, or watching sports on TV.

What is the best part about working at Milwaukee Career College?
The best part about working at Milwaukee Career College is hearing the students success stories after graduation. For example, one of my students stopped in to say hi and thank me for helping her make the decision to come to Milwaukee Career College. The best part is she got hired on her externship and loves her job!
That’s awesome!! What advice would you give to someone thinking about enrolling in school?
The advice I would give to someone that’s thinking about enrolling into school is, if your thinking about it come and check it out because school is a great investment and it’s worth getting more information.
When you’re not here enrolling new students, how do you like to spend your time?
When I’m not enrolling new students, I like to spend my time with my son Blake and my family.
