Leah's Learner Profile by Leah O'Grady https://padlet.com/leah_ogrady/etdpprioe986 Living to Learn! en-us 2018-06-04 21:56:44 UTC 2026-03-18 05:18:53 UTC hello@padlet.com https://padlet-assets.s3.amazonaws.com/icons/Templeball.png Here's where I work! leah_ogrady https://padlet.com/leah_ogrady/etdpprioe986/wish/265500809 I work on the Student Success team in the Provost's office here at DU, overseeing the implementation and adoption of a new student success platform on campus. The goal of the system will be to holistically support students better through more coordinated and data-driven strategies. But I obviously ALSO teach, which really gives me a connection back to students (I was previously an advisor and really miss my student interactions!). ]]> 2018-06-04 22:00:21 UTC https://padlet.com/leah_ogrady/etdpprioe986/wish/265500809 I'm a Georgia Peach! leah_ogrady https://padlet.com/leah_ogrady/etdpprioe986/wish/265501644 I'm from just outside of Atlanta, but have been in Denver for 12 years. ]]> 2018-06-04 22:09:06 UTC https://padlet.com/leah_ogrady/etdpprioe986/wish/265501644 My family leah_ogrady https://padlet.com/leah_ogrady/etdpprioe986/wish/265501894 Here's a picture of my family at my brother's wedding 2 years ago (I'm next to my brother).  I've since gained another niece and two more nephews! ]]> 2018-06-04 22:11:56 UTC https://padlet.com/leah_ogrady/etdpprioe986/wish/265501894 I LOVE traveling. leah_ogrady https://padlet.com/leah_ogrady/etdpprioe986/wish/265502090 I took this picture in the summer of 2017 while I was visiting the fjords of Norway.  I HIGHLY recommend traveling there - it's breathtaking. I'm so glad travel is an option again and am already trying to think of my next destination. Any suggestions?]]> 2018-06-04 22:13:16 UTC https://padlet.com/leah_ogrady/etdpprioe986/wish/265502090 Meet Lenny! leah_ogrady https://padlet.com/leah_ogrady/etdpprioe986/wish/265502273 This is my favorite girl, Lenny the lunatic longdog.  She reminds me not to take life TOO seriously :).  She also reminds me of Jar Jar Binks from Star Wars in this picture. ]]> 2018-06-04 22:14:59 UTC https://padlet.com/leah_ogrady/etdpprioe986/wish/265502273 My Educational Background leah_ogrady https://padlet.com/leah_ogrady/etdpprioe986/wish/265746330 I got my masters in Higher Education right here at DU, and went to the University of Georgia for my bachelors degrees (Psychology, Child/Family Development)]]> 2018-06-05 21:43:18 UTC https://padlet.com/leah_ogrady/etdpprioe986/wish/265746330 My motivation and who I am as an instructor: I'm here FOR YOU! leah_ogrady https://padlet.com/leah_ogrady/etdpprioe986/wish/265746889 I love teaching this course because it gives you a chance to apply what you've learned in this program and your career. I'm VERY flexible, but you have to communicate with me so I can support you through this process!]]> 2018-06-05 21:48:08 UTC https://padlet.com/leah_ogrady/etdpprioe986/wish/265746889 Sister Instructors leah_ogrady https://padlet.com/leah_ogrady/etdpprioe986/wish/265748096 My sister, Allison, also works and teaches at DU. We are mistaken for twins constantly (I wonder why...). You might have a chance to take a class with her (or you might have already done it!)!]]> 2018-06-05 21:58:25 UTC https://padlet.com/leah_ogrady/etdpprioe986/wish/265748096 One of my current goals leah_ogrady https://padlet.com/leah_ogrady/etdpprioe986/wish/265748865 I've spent the last year getting back on the fitness track after taking some time off from working out.

If you all haven't watched the David Attinborogh documentary on Netflix, I highly recommend it! ]]> 2021-01-05 18:44:42 UTC https://padlet.com/leah_ogrady/etdpprioe986/wish/1056947978 Preferred Pronouns leah_ogrady https://padlet.com/leah_ogrady/etdpprioe986/wish/1335217941 2021-03-21 20:09:49 UTC https://padlet.com/leah_ogrady/etdpprioe986/wish/1335217941 Myers-Briggs: INTP leah_ogrady https://padlet.com/leah_ogrady/etdpprioe986/wish/1335228681
INTPs are philosophical innovators, fascinated by logical analysis, systems, and design. They want to understand the unifying themes of life, in all their complexity.

INTPs are detached, analytical observers who can become deeply absorbed in thought. They spend much of their time in their own heads: exploring concepts, making connections, and seeking understanding of how things work.

I'm also a big fan of The Handmaid's Tale (why are the dark ones always so good?!), 90 Day Fiancé, Insecure, and can usually be found watching reruns of The Office, Parks & Rec, and anything on HGTV. I'm also very much looking forward to the new season of The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel (coming out in February!). I'd love to hear other recommendations if you all have any! ]]> 2021-12-17 15:59:13 UTC https://padlet.com/leah_ogrady/etdpprioe986/wish/1953946254 Where's the snow?! leah_ogrady https://padlet.com/leah_ogrady/etdpprioe986/wish/1953952215 For those of you in Colorado, I keep asking: "where's the snow?!"
