SHANNA HUSLIG
Job title: Full-time online faculty
Job location: 27th Avenue
What attracted you to GCU? I worked at GCU for six years and had to leave when my mother fell ill. She ended up passing away, which was really difficult for me to deal with. Coming back to GCU felt like coming “home.”
What do you do for fun and where do you find that outlet? I love to enjoy life in any way that I can! Hanging with friends and family, exploring the great outdoors, reading, exercising, live music, art, history, crafting and playing with my fur baby, among other things.
What are you passionate about? I am passionate about a lot of things, but a few of them include helping people build a growth mindset and get out of their own way and helping women and children get out of the human-trafficking trade.
What are your favorite places or events in the Valley that you like to visit? One of my favorite places in the Valley is the Botanical Garden. I also love the parks and walking trails that are all over.
Tell us something about yourself that most people don’t know: I love to sing and was in choir when I was younger. Even won some competitions!
What are you most proud of? I have overcome a plethora of obstacles, tragedy and heartbreak in my life and am still able to maintain a positive attitude and love every minute I’m alive. God is great!
