Why do you work at Northwestern?
Kayla works at Northwestern because Northwestern greatly shaped her as an educator and person. She loved my years at UNW and made lifelong friends, learned how to share Christ as an educator, and was mentored by amazing professors. She is honored to work at UNW and being able to help provide the same excellent experience to students.
