About
Shea coordinates global and domestic travel opportunities and manages grants and funding for student projects in the BLI.
As a first-generation college student studying Neuroscience and Religion & Culture at Virginia Tech, Shea found her passion for interdisciplinary education. This led to a move to Michigan to pursue a professional degree at the University of Michigan. As a graduate student, Shea held positions in the School of Information’s Office of Academic & Student Affairs, as a researcher for University Responses to Sexual Assault on Campus, and as a Graduate Assistant for the BLI’s Capstone Program. After receiving her Master’s of Arts in Higher Education, she served as a Community Center Manager for Residence Education at The University of Michigan.
In her free time, Shea enjoys being in nature, reading (especially Fantasy/Science Fiction), and trying new restaurants and recipes.
