Want to know more about the staff behind the LMU Bookstore?

Meet Dana Heathcott, store manager of the LMU Bookstore has been with Barnes and Noble for 19 years and this past year was her first at the LMU Bookstore. She loves interacting with the students and listening to what they have to say. “Being around them helps keep me young, and what I would like to think as ‘in the know.’ Overall, customer service is what keeps bringing me back. I want to make sure customers are being taken care of and feel like they are the number one priority in the bookstore,” said Heathcott.

Like many in the Lion community, Heathcott said her favorite spot on LMU’s campus is the bluff. “I love being able to see Los Angeles and the ocean all in one view. It is the most amazing thing,” said Heathcott.

Meet Jared Fembleaux ’20, supervisor of the LMU Bookstore who has been working with Barnes and Noble for about a year now and started right before his senior year at LMU. For Fembleaux his favorite thing about working at the bookstore is seeing and speaking with prospective students. “It reminds me of why I love LMU so much and wanted to come to LMU in the first place,” he said. He also likes being able to help current students because “these are some of the toughest schooling years they will face and being able to help them succeed is really worthwhile,” said Fembleaux.

As an LMU alum, Fembleaux’s favorite spot on campus is the William H. Hannon Library or Xavier Hall. “I’ve spent many late nights in both buildings and each building offers calming, reclusive study areas for when you really need to get work done
