Chief Administrator
About
Update due to COVID-19: Please be advised that due to COVID-19, as with the rest of our staff and many people at the university, I am working remotely. My regular business hours will be 8:00AM - 4:30PM during this time. Email is the best way to reach me. If you do call my office line and leave a message, voice-mails will be forwarded to my email. Requests for virtual meetings may be sent via Google Calendar - my free/busy info is publicly available. Please be patient during this time if you experience slower than normal responses to inquiries. We are all doing our best to respond to queries in a rapidly evolving environment! Thank you and best wishes.
