Howl About You
Employee Spotlight Series
NC State employs more than 8,000 employees who work across a multitude of colleges, divisions, departments, offices and units that spread across the state. Even though some of us have developed close professional relationships and friendships with colleagues, for many of us getting to know anyone other than our daily co-workers is difficult. That’s why we’ve created Howl About You, a page where we shine a spotlight on our employees by letting them share five facts about themselves. As you read the entries on Howl About You, we hope you discover someone who shares the same professional or personal interests as you and make a connection with them.

Tina Maria Nelson-Moss
I’ve been an employee at NC State for over 17 years and have had many incredible opportunities throughout my career. I was hired to develop NC State’s Behavior Assessment Team, and it has grown from a one-person operation into a department with eight employees.
In 2024, I achieved a significant professional milestone by applying for my first federal grant and being awarded a U.S. Department of Homeland Security Targeted Violence and Terrorism Prevention Grant.
I am the president of the D.C. Mid-Atlantic Chapter of the Association of Threat Assessment Professionals, an organization dedicated to advancing the field of threat assessment and violence prevention.
I am a proud Air Force veteran and am grateful to have had the opportunity to serve in Afghanistan, where I provided mental health care to service members.
Outside of work, my greatest joy is spending time with my children. Whether it’s enjoying catch, basketball, card games, singing, bowling or chess, I cherish every opportunity to laugh, compete and make memories together.
