Our Mission

Education is the birthright of every person.

We as members of the University of Nebraska Office Professionals Association pledge ourselves to safeguard that right. We acknowledge the unique role of educational office professionals and the importance of their contributions to the university and the community.

The purpose of UNOPA is to provide professional growth and promote high professional standards for educational office professionals with the University of Nebraska, as partners upholding the quality of service to the university educational system and the community.

We invite all office support staff at UNL to attend one of our meetings and get enthused about this special organization. We hope you find exciting opportunities and events within UNOPA.

Christina is an Administrative Associate in the Agricultural Leadership, Education and Communication department in CASNR. She has been the department head's assistant for three years.

She loves serving her community and making a difference in the culture at UNL. She is passionate about staff advocacy. She is currently a member of the IANR Staff Council and sits on the Steering Committee of the UNL All-Staff Conference.

In her spare time, Christina loves spending time with her college sweetheart and husband of 20 years. They have one son who keeps them on their toes and is very active.
