OU OUTREACH NEWS

It is with profound sadness that we share the passing of Darlynn Dietrich, who served as Executive Program Assistant to Dr. Belinda Biscoe for Outreach.
Darlynn brought more than three decades of administrative expertise to our college, along with a deep commitment to excellence and service. 

Natalie joined the OU E-TEAM as a senior research associate in February 2024. She is a first-generation college graduate, and holds a Bachelor of Arts degree in Anthropology, with a second major in African American Studies from the University of Oklahoma.

Maria moved to Oklahoma in 1994 from Long Island, NY, and yes, I still have my New York accent! I have one daughter, who is my rock. I joined CARE in 2017 after spending years working in customer service. I take pride in helping people and solving problems. I strive to foster a positive outlook in the workplace, often praising my coworkers for their accomplishments.
