About me

I have been in admissions for 9 years. I began my career at the campus level as an Enrollment Services Director (ESD), or what many know as a Director of Admissions. I was offered the opportunity to work at the corporate level of our college system as an Admissions Specialist. My primary functions are in training all new admissions staff, oversight of campus ESD and filling in when we have a vacancy at the ESD position on a campus. I love having the opportunity to train and motivate admisssions staff and feel my strongest rewards when they are successful. Their success leads to student success and that is the primary goal for our college.

Interests

Skills

public speaking, data analysis, building successful admissions staff, problem solving, motivating staff, strong written and verbal communication
