Hi, Tornados! As an alumna of Concordia (CLC at the time), I’m excited and so blessed
to be in my 25+ years of service to this University. The extraordinary people here
create the vibe that I love so much about this place.
My husband, James (a three-time alumnus), and I enjoy living in Austin and spending
time with our families and pets.
Some of my random favorite things: Tex-Mex food, cool shoes, a good classic rock song
on the radio, and sunflowers.
I look forward to meeting you! Woosh!

Hello! My name is Anne-Marie, and I’m so excited to come alongside you in your academic success! The feeling of community at CTX is wonderful, and I am delighted to be a part of it. A bit about me: I’m a Texas native but also lived in NYC and Arizona before returning to the Austin area. Outside of work, I am a musician (flutist/musicologist), and I enjoy hiking, eating, exercising, reading, and spending time with family. Please reach out if you ever have a question, or just to say hi. I look forward to working with you!

Hey, everyone! My name is Abbie and I am so happy to be here as your Academic Planner. I have been a part of the CTX family for almost a decade. Once as a student, and now getting to set students like you up for success!
I am a Texas native born and raised. When I transferred as a student to Austin, I immediately fell in love with the beautiful scenery, people, and food.
One of the many things I enjoyed during my time as a student at CTX was the community of people that build you up to be your best, ready to take on the world. I hope we can achieve this together and cannot wait to see you thrive!
