Thank you for the warm welcome I have received from so many of you to the Interim Dean role.
I joined Douglass four years ago in the Office of Advancement and have served for the past two years as the Associate Dean for Strategic Initiatives, overseeing communications, operations, and planning at the College. While I have had the pleasure of meeting many of you, I wanted to take a minute to introduce myself to those of you I have not yet met.
To Our Alumnae Community,
One of my greatest joys as Dean of Douglass has been learning about and getting to know our wonderful alumnae. I have met hundreds of you, learned about your lives and dreams, and shared the many wonders of Douglass today. Your reflections on your college years, the deep friendships you generated at Douglass, and your curiosity about the College today have fueled many fulfilling days and hours over my last twelve years as Dean.

The evening offered students the opportunity to share their work, showing the entire college community all that can be achieved through Douglass programs!
