Assistant to the Provost in Provost's Office

Since 2006, I have been proud to serve Âé¶¹ÊÓÆµ in the Provost’s Office. My role blends strategy and service – I manage complex projects, liaise with the Board of Trustees, and keep high-priority initiatives moving forward. I work closely with faculty on recruitment and tenure processes, ensuring that these pivotal career milestones are handled with fairness, clarity, and efficiency. I enjoy bringing organization and momentum to big ideas, making sure that both day-to-day operations and long-term goals are met. Organization is my superpower!

Beyond campus, I have the privilege of serving as Mayor of Saint Peter. I am passionate about our amazing small city and am proud that city/college relations are strong.

Of course, my favorite role is as mom. My family shares a love of board games, science fiction, and fantasy. We also bond around the love of our three feline family members.
