This important leadership role will focus on advancing UWM\u2019s mission by transforming complex institutional data into timely, accurate and actionable insight that supports student success, strategic planning, resource allocation, accreditation and evidence-based decision-making.

She also served as an IPEDS Educator and curriculum developer for 9 years, specializing in New Keyholder training, was the author of the IPEDS training curriculum for Human Resources, and served as both the chair for public 4-year institutions and public systems on the National Postsecondary Education Cooperative (NPEC), a now-defunct advisory body to the US Department of Education.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I wish to thank the Search Committee, chaired by Chris Pevey-Harry, for their service to the university and for producing a strong pool of candidates. I also extend my gratitude to Vice Provost for Academic Affairs Dave Clark and the many individuals he collaborated with for managing various elements of the search process.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
