🌟 Faculty & Staff Spotlight 🌟 LESLIE HOFF

Help us WELCOME one of our newest team members to the College of Nursing! 👏

💼 Meet Our New Business Officer-LESLIE HOFF!
We’re excited to introduce the friendly face behind business finance and operations—bringing a strong background in healthcare administration and a passion for supporting student success!

🎓 What inspired this journey?
After exploring nursing programs personally (just one pre-req away! 👀), this role felt like the perfect way to stay connected to healthcare while leveraging years of operational expertise.

❤️ Favorite part about nursing students?
While new to direct interaction, there’s real excitement in seeing students transform classroom learning into hands-on clinical skills.

💡 Advice for students:
“Don’t forget to take care of YOU. Self-care is essential when your focus is caring for others.” 🌿

🧠 Passion area:
With a background in behavioral health, there’s a strong personal and professional connection to this vital specialty.

🏕️ Outside of work:
You’ll find Leslie outdoors—fishing 🎣, hunting 🦌, camping ⛺, snowmobiling ❄️, or enjoying clay target shooting!

✨ Fun fact:
Originally planned to become a Nurse Anesthetist!
