Admissions Counselors
Danielle Reckers
Fort Riley Admissions Counselor
Phone: 785.784.9930
E-mail: danielle.reckers@sckans.edu
Danielle has spent most of her adult life focused on her career and recently decided it is time to take the leap back into completing her education. From 2013-2021, she was a property director for luxury apartments in the Dallas/Ft. Worth area. Since returning to school and understanding the hurdles that can come with returning to school as an adult, she found a passion for wanting to help others start their own academic journey. Before joining us here at Southwestern College, she worked at the Education Center on Fort Riley helping Service Members and their families. When she’s away from work, she enjoys spending time with her family, hiking, camping, and finding adventures that create lifelong memories.

Kathy spent many years in the front of a classroom teaching six and seven-year-olds in urban, suburban, and private schools in the Wichita area. Kathy’s favorite part of teaching were the relationships that she built. In the last couple of years, she decided that she wanted to work with a slightly older clientele. As an adult learner herself, Kathy understands many of the obstacles that adult learners must overcome. When she is away from work, you will find her reading, listening to music, spending time with friends, or in Lenexa Kansas visiting her son.
