About Caitlin

A resident of New Haven, I come to the University from BioCT, the trade association for Connecticut’s life sciences industry, where I led communications efforts. Prior to my work with BioCT, I was an English as a Second Language tutor, the departmental events and social media assistant for the Center for East Asian Studies at the University of Chicago, and an archive's assistant for Special Collections at the University of Chicago.

I am passionate about writing and storytelling and enjoy leveraging analytics to inform decision-making. I am excited to work in higher education and to tell the stories of the University and our community.

I earned my bachelor’s degree in art history and Italian studies from the University of New Hampshire in 2017. As an undergraduate, I served as a museum fellow for the Museum of Art at the University of New Hampshire. I earned my master’s in humanities from the University of Chicago in 2020.
