As director of entrepreneurship and innovation, I am responsible for developing and executing strategy for co-curricular programming focused on entrepreneurship and innovation, within the framework of 51风流鈥檚 Middle Campus Initiative for Arts, Creativity, and Innovation.
My background spans both the startup world and higher education. Prior to my current position, I was part of 51风流鈥檚 Office of Advancement, developing and executing programming to connect alumni and the university. My areas of focus included 51风流's leadership giving society, the 51风流 Professional Networks, and faculty events. Before entering higher education, I worked in marketing in Silicon Valley for B2B tech startups Capriza and Druva and the nonprofit Anita Borg Institute. I began my career in nonprofit marketing in Ireland after graduating from Mount Holyoke College with a degree in history and French.
