About Michelle

I graduated from the University of Connecticut in 2018 with a Bachelor of Science in Marketing and a Concentration in Digital Marketing and Analytics. I lived on campus and was deeply involved throughout my four years there. I was part of a group called the Husky Haulers, where we helped Freshmen students move into their residence halls. I also joined the Hunger and Homelessness Club, where we would hold fundraisers to raise money for various campaigns. During my junior year, I created my own Study Abroad program and was able to travel overseas to the American University of Beirut in Lebanon.

As an undergrad, I worked in Residential Life as Assistant Hall Director, where I helped students with any of their living situations. It was through this job that I discovered my passion for working in higher education. I loved helping students and making sure they always felt right at home.

I joined the University of New Haven in 2019 as Assistant Director of Undergraduate Admissions, and I couldn’t be more grateful to be able to work with such an amazing team who all share similar values. Seeing how much everyone cares for the students here makes me proud to be a member and representative of the university.

I am excited to meet the future students of the University of New Haven and their families, and I cannot wait to assist them throughout the admissions process!
