About Colby

I am a two-time graduate of the University of New Haven, earning my B.A. in English Writing in 2015 and, most recently, my Executive MBA. Today, I serve as Director of Enrollment Communications, where I lead communication and marketing strategies that help undergraduate and graduate students, as well as their families, navigate the college search and enrollment process.

My connection to the University began as a student. As an undergraduate, I was actively involved across campus in student government, Greek life, the orientation program, and non-profit organizations. It was through those experiences, along with my time working in Undergraduate Admissions and the Center for Student Engagement, Leadership, and Orientation, that I discovered my passion for higher education.

I began my career in Undergraduate Admissions shortly after graduating and have had the opportunity to grow alongside the University ever since. In my current role, I oversee enrollment communications across both undergraduate and graduate admissions, working with colleagues across the University to make sure students and families receive clear, timely, and helpful information throughout their journey to becoming a Charger.

Having experienced the University as both a student and a professional, I know firsthand how transformative the college experience can be. I am proud to play a role in helping future Chargers discover the opportunities available to them at the University of New Haven, and I hope to see you on campus soon!
