Meet the Staff
Dave Sundby is the Assistant Director of Student Life. Dave is primarily responsible for the service and sports programs and serves as the webmaster for this site. This semester, he also manages club registration, budget issues, and general Student Life concerns. He received his B.A. from California Lutheran University and his M.A. from the University of Chicago, where he focused his studies in philosophy (yes, he's a big nerd).
Currently, Dave enjoys working on the staff side of higher education, but he's still considering eventually going back to school to pursue a Ph.D. in philosophy so that he can teach at the university level. Dave spends a lot of his free time in front his TV watching football (go Seahawks!) and The Wire on HBO. He also likes to run, play sports, read, and spend as much time as possible with his girlfriend. Born and raised near Seattle, Dave is fiercely proud of the Pacific Northwest and loves all things rainy and green. He can be reached at dsundby (at) marymountpv (dot) edu.
Susan Garman is a member of the Speech and English Department and the former Director of Student Life.

She went on to earn a Masters in Education at Colorado State University and a Masters in English Literature at California State University, Dominguez Hills.
Happily, it is not all work. Susan is an avid traveler and a proud alumna of Semester at Sea (she is always glad to talk about her experience with students interested in experiencing this amazing trip). She shares her house with her husband and a multitude of pets. Susan spends her free time riding horses and paddling her sea kayak.
