About Kyree Whitehead

Education was a gift to me—and at the time I did not realize the importance it would play in my life. As a first-generation student, I knew nothing about it or the benefits of getting a degree. By connecting with university admissions and enrollment staff who served as guides, I was able to get started and ultimately earn my first degree. These connections also ignited my passion and commitment to helping others achieve the same. They kickstarted my career.Helping individuals to reach their highest potential is my passion. Strategic planning, admission, recruitment, and operations management are my framework. Through education, training and development, we all have the ability to grow into much more than we are today. Outside my professional life, I serve as a local leader. From InWeekly Rising Star in 2018 to Oasis FL Board of Directors President, I assist my community in any way I can. My goal, professionally and personally, is to commit myself to everything I do with a level of expertise and excitement. Smalls steps can make big impacts. Let’s connect and start our walk.
