About

Currently serving as the Vice President of Student and Campus Life at SUNY Geneseo. Throughout my career I have focused on developing and enhancing student development efforts with a focus on serving diverse student populations, inclusion & belonging, improving the student experience, retention & persistence, organizational development & efficiency, as well as emergency management. Given my direct experience with a merger/acquisition, it would be my pleasure to assist colleagues who may be approaching or find themselves in the midst of that scenario.
