Experience

1. Associate Vice President of Academic Affairs for Institutional Effectiveness

   Siena University

   Jan 2024 — Present · Loudonville, NY, US

   Broadly, I work on issues of assessment at a variety of scales, across academic and non-academic offices, promoting a process of ongoing self improvement. Responsibilities include accreditation, academic program review, oversight of academic and administrative assessment, support of strategic planning and execution, and supervision of the Institutional Research and Institutional Effectiveness team through which institutional reporting is handled. I serve as ALO and liaison to NYSED, and through my committee work I advance institutional processes for data governance, records retention and destruction, student learning assessment, and institutional planning and resource allocation.
