Brief biography
Serving as the Associate Vice Chancellor for Academic Affairs at UW-La Crosse I oversee the following units: Academic Advising Center & Career Services, Admissions, Center for Advancing Teaching and Learning (CATL), Financial Aid, Graduate Studies, Institutional Research, Assessment & Planning (IRAP), Office of Research and Sponsored Programs (ORSP, which includes UG Rsh and Creativity), and Records & Registration. In this role I act as the direct report for the directors of these units and report directly to the Provost & Vice Chancellor for Academic Affairs. I oversee special projects related to student enrollment, student retention, assessment and faculty development.
I also serve as UW-L's System Liaison & UWL Academic Planner and thus coordinate the internal and UW System approval of new programs and internal review of existing academic programs. I serve as the consultant for new UWL programs (majors, minors, emphases, concentrations), guiding them through the internal and System processes, and reviewing materials.
