Lookin’ at U – Melissa Diers

picture disc.Quick, think of five things others should know about you.

That’s the theme behind a series in UNMC Today called “Lookin’ at U.”

Each Thursday, we will randomly select a medical center employee to feature.

This week, we feature Melissa Diers, instructional designer in information technology services.

Here, in her own words, are five fun facts about Melissa:

  • Most of what I know about educational information technology is self-taught. I hold a bachelor’s degree in fine art and a master’s degree in education.

  • I enjoy volunteering for the neighborhood homeowners association board, as the Boxtops School Coordinator and serving as the vice president of the community club (PTA) at my son’s elementary school.

  • I met my husband, Bob, in 1983 and decided he was a keeper 14 years later. We exchanged vows in 1997.

  • I am the proud mother of two sons — Ian, who is 8 1/2, and Alec, who is 3 1/2. I would rather have their pictures posted in the article than mine. (EDITOR’S NOTE: Please notice the compromise in the picture to the right.)

  • I have been employed at UNMC for 12 years. One of the best attributes about my position is the opportunity to work with various people within the system.

    Read UNMC Today next Thursday to see who is featured in the next Lookin’ at U article. Who knows — it could be U.
