Associate Provost for Diversity, Equity and Inclusion
The Office of the Associate Provost for Diversity, Equity and Inclusion is responsible for overall strategic leadership to advance diversity, equity, and inclusion as expressed within Saint Joseph University’s mission and its related institutional strategic plan. Diversity, equity and inclusion (DEI) is a strategic and mission-driven priority. Grounded in our Jesuit teachings, it provides a welcoming, inclusive and enriching campus culture; prepares our students and community members for a diverse, global and interconnected world; and aligns with our values and intellectual tradition of encouraging diversity of thought and experience, and advocating for social justice in its many forms.
I am fortunate to be at an institution that matches my desire and passion to meet all people where they are and to support student academic success and the overall university experience for all of our communities.”
