Marlese moved from Omaha, Nebraska, to Parker in December 2012 and was drawn to RVU due to her extensive experience working at the University of Nebraska Medical Center College of Public Health as an Administrative Associate in the Dean’s Office, as a Standardized Patient Coordinator and as a Learning Resource Associate in the College of Medicine. She also had a desire to get back into medical simulation. Until recently, Marlese has been assisting with RVU's Simulation Center and Standardized Patient program. “I was excited to find and be part of RVU because I can see it’s a vibrant and growing university where faculty, staff, and students are very dedicated to education and involvement in the community. I really enjoy working in a university environment, especially with students who are committed to the field of medicine. Proctoring exams is a way to contribute to assisting in the success of the students and the college. This has been a fun and rewarding experience.” Marlese and her husband have six grown children and 14 grandchildren. In her free time, Marlese loves to travel, explore the beauties of nature, sing, serve in her church, craft, and sew.
