About Me

As vice president for strategic initiatives and chief of staff for the Office of the President, I work directly with President Wollman on a wide range of strategic initiatives. I provide leadership in a number of dimensions including civic and global engagement, university-wide strategy development, community relations, and direct the operations of the Office of the President.

I represent the interests of the President to various internal and external constituencies, and am honored to work directly with the Board of Trustees.

I joined the Widener University community in 2016.
