She was first in her family to attend college and earned a B.S. in anthropology from the University of Idaho, and a M.Ed. with a specialization in Counseling and Guidance from California State Polytechnic University in San Luis Obispo. She has previous experience working with one of the TRIO Programs (Student Support Services) at Cal Poly State University in California where she was their academic advisor. Tammy enjoys working with college students as demonstrated in her ten plus years working in higher education. As McNair’s academic advisor she will be working closely with students in the process of their transition from undergraduate to graduate school.
