Administrative Coordinator, Career Planning

I am an Administrative Coordinator in APEX, working primarily with the office of Career Planning. Some of the highlights of my current position include interacting with students, staff, and faculty through booking appointments, planning events, collecting data, and providing administrative support.

I have been employed at the College since 2005, and what I love most about Wooster is the strong sense of community across campus. I live in Wooster with my family and enjoy traveling as much as possible.

Strengths: Relator | Futuristic | Deliberative | Competition | Individualization.
