Meet The Staff

Resident Director

Hi everyone! My name is Shawna Little, and this is my first year as the Resident Director in Lincoln Hall. I live in Lincoln with my two kittens, Deuce and Sidney, and my two turtles, Chipper and Tillie. My hometown is Connellsville, PA, which is only a short drive from Morgantown. I graduated from Allegheny College in 2005 with a Communication Arts and Psychology double major, and completed my Master of Science degree in 2007 at California University of PA. I LOVE sports, and am an obsessive Pittsburgh Steelers and Penguins fan, and I am excited to support all Mountaineer sports this year! I am very much looking forward to getting to know all the residents of Lincoln Hall, and encourage everyone to participate in the numerous programming opportunities we offer throughout the year!

Emily Martinelli

Hello everyone!!!! My name is Emily Martinelli. I am returning for a second year as a resident assistant in Lincoln Hall. I am from Camp Hill, Pa (about 12 miles from Hershey). I am an elementary education major with a specialization in social studies. I have been a Mountaineer fan my entire life since my Dad is an alumnus. I am so excited about this year! We have a ton of great programs planned for this year and I hope that all of you will take advantage of the great opportunity to live in Lincoln Hall.

Danielle Herlache

Hi, my name is Danielle. I will be a sophomore working on a double major in Criminology and Investigations and International Studies. I am also studying for a minor in Spanish; so if you need any help here don’t be afraid to ask. My hometown is Milwaukee, WI where the winters are chilly and there are feet of snow. So I am used to hanging instead, thus I really like reading but most of all, I enjoy watching movies. I LOVE soccer, volleyball and football, especially the NFL – a total Patriots fan!! But I do enjoy going to a lot of the Mountaineer sporting events and hanging out with friends. I look forward to getting to know all of you and hope to help you have a GREAT year at WVU and in Lincoln Hall!

Kevin Steurer

Hey guys! My name is Kevin Steurer and I am from East Brunswick, New Jersey which is about forty minutes south of New York City. I am a junior nursing major and want to become a nurse practitioner in pediatrics (child care). This is my second year as an RA in Lincoln and I also lived in Lincoln my freshman year. I am going to be on the fourth floor and can’t wait to help make it the best floor! I am a big baseball fan and Yankees are my team. At home, I live with my parents, my brother, and my dog named Zeus. I am also a big music person. I have been singing since I was little and have been part of my church choir since third grade and was also part of New Jersey’s All-State chorus for two years in high school. You’ll always hear music coming from my room. Please don’t hesitate to come find me with any questions or concerns you may have. My door is always open. I can’t wait to meet all of you and look forward to an amazing school year. Lets Go Mountaineers!!!

Heidi Muller

Hooola! My name is Heidi Muller, and I’m a senior psychology
major/English minor. My mom is a major in the USAF, so I don’t have
one distinct location to call “home.” So far my family and I have
lived in New York, Kansas, Texas, Georgia, New Hampshire, Nebraska,
and currently Dover, Delaware. It’s been a complicated, dramatic, and
interesting life as a military brat and I wouldn’t change it for
anything. My family means the world to me, which is great because it’s
huge. My mom just got remarried this summer, so on top of the siblings
I already have (Beth, Tommy, and Mae), I now have two step-sisters
(Amanda and Melissa) and a step-brother (Jacen). My family is crazy
and very loving and I’ve been blessed to have them all in my life. I’m
a very fun-loving, caring, absolutely insane person. You’ll most
likely see me running around the hall laughing hysterically. I’m
definitely a child at heart who still enjoys the little things in
life. I love to read, play the piano, laugh til
l I cry, watch movies, and just hang out with friends. I’m a very easy
person to get to know and to talk to. My door is always open for
anyone who wants to talk or visit!!

Jacqueline Kinnaman

Hi all! My name is Jacqueline Kinnaman and this is my first year as a
Resident Assistant in Lincoln Hall. I’m a Secondary English Education
major. Far away from Morgantown is my teeny tiny hometown in
Southeastern Kentucky known as Harlan. It’s a given that I love to
read, but I’m also a movie buff and love art. The thing I love the
most is being a WVU mountaineer! GO EERS!

Matt Underwood

Hey, I’m Matt Underwood. I’m a sophomore dual-majoring in Aerospace and Mechanical Engineering. This is my first year as a Resident Assistant, and I look forward to joining the staff at Lincoln Hall. I am from Fairfax, Virginia, and graduated from Paul VI Catholic High School. I play all kinds of sports, but football and baseball are my favorites. I am a huge Mountaineers fan, as well as a Steelers, Penguins, Pirates, and Yankees fan. I enjoy listening to and playing music. I play the trumpet and guitar, so if you want to play a little, come find me. I look forward to helping all of the residents on my floor and getting to know everyone well.

Rachael Fitzwater

I grew up on a farm just outside of Point Pleasant, WV. I love music,
especially singing. I’m very involved with 4-H and Campus Crusade. I’m

Hello Everyone! My name is Ryan Hays. I am from Hanover, VA, just north of Richmond. I will be a sophomore in the Chemical Engineering Department, with emphasis in Biology and Chinese. I enjoy playing sports, specifically frisbee, football, soccer and lacrosse. I love to watch Mountaineer sports and tailgating. I look forward to getting back up to Morgantown and meeting everyone.
Will Earhart

Hey folks. My name is Will Earhart. I grew up in a small town in Virginia showing cows and was very involved in the FFA and 4-H as a kid. Here at WVU, I’m a junior working on a Petroleum & Natural Gas Engineering and Geology double major. You’re likely to see me around campus hitting up the library or scouting out a quiet place to work in the Engineering building. Although some people think I’m a nerd (mostly true), I’m also the type of person always up for trying something new. If you don’t believe me, then stop by sometime and ask me about my skydiving escapade this summer. Better yet, my doors always open so please feel free to stop by anytime if you have any questions about WVU or classes or just want to chat. Lincoln Hall is more than a place to live; it’s the place to kick start this new segment of your life as a Mountaineer. Let us know what we can do to make that experience the best it can be.
Skylar Jewell

Hey, My name is Skylar Jewell, obviously cause it says above, but I’m
a Sophomore here at WVU, majoring in Sports and Exercise Psychology. I
am from Montgomery County, Maryland and am a huge Redskins fan. I also
love to play most sports, my favorite being GOLF. Overall, I would
consider myself a nice, open sociable person. But hey don’t take my
word for it, come see me on the best floor, the 3rd floor in Lincoln
Hall. My door should be open so stop on by and get to know me yourself.
LET’S GO MOUNTAINEERS !!!

Cameron Wilson

Hey guys!!! My name is Cameron Wilson and I am from the small town of
Spencer, West Virginia. This is my second year as an RA in Lincoln Hall
and I am really excited about coming back. I haven’t yet declared a
major, so that is something I’ll be working on as the semester
progresses. This year I’ll be on the 2nd floor with Heidi and Rachael,
which will make for an awesome time. We will make a great team to
better serve you guys in the hall. I am interested in most anything. I
like to know a little about a lot. My door is always open. I look
forward to meeting all of you while making the 2009-2010 school year a
great one. Lets go Mountaineers!!!
