SKILLS
ABOUT BRAD SALOIS
I am proud to be the leader of a talented MARCOM team that operates across numerous channels and has won 16 notable awards, including 14 national, under my leadership. KWU\'s enrollment rose more than 28% from Fall \'21 through Fall \'25 and the university\'s endowment has nearly doubled since I arrived on campus. My work also helped fundraising spike, fueling new student housing, new academic buildings and a renovated performance space. In short, there\'s a direct tie between my efforts and a significant increase in revenue. In fact, KWU\'s net tuition revenue has increased 44% since my arrival on campus, nearly half of which has been on the basis of institution strength and enrollment increases, not pricing changes. I am skilled in Microsoft Office, multiple Adobe products, media relations, crisis work, public speaking, broadcasting, AP style, and social media, among other things. I have a working knowledge of Google Ads, as well.
