Admissions Representative - High School Relations

"Your college experience is about more than just classes - it’s about being involved and meeting others. Therefore, I encourage students to explore the offerings we have in order to find something that interests them and make the most of their time here at Hawkeye!”

@ Hawkeye

I am an Admissions Representative for High School Relations, which means that I am responsible for visiting many of the high schools within our service area to meet with students and counselors about the educational opportunities that are available through Hawkeye. I also travel to college fairs and create marketing materials in order to help promote our services. You may also see me if you attend an Experience Hawkeye Group Visit Day or schedule an individual campus visit.

I have been at Hawkeye since May 2010.

My most memorable moment at Hawkeye was seeing the first big event that I worked on come together. It was awesome to see so many students having a great time and realize that I played a part in making it so successful!
