Focus Area: New Student Programs

Liz is a born and raised Massachusetts “South Shore” native having grown up here and gone to school at Emerson College in Boston. With a BFA in Theatre Production & Management, she loves live performances but has always preferred musicals to plays as the idea of being able to sign and dance your problems away has always held a certain appeal to her. Not that long after completing her undergrad she came to Boston University to complete an M.Ed. in Higher Education Administration and has never looked back. When she’s not working you can find her hanging out with friends, family, and her cat (she’ll show you far too many pictures if you ask), and following her favorite band around the world when they tour. If you visit her office you’ll see plenty of pictures of U2 from many of the shows she’s attended over the years (over 30!). Another perk of visiting her in her office is getting to enjoy the rocking chair as well as all of her plants. While she loves helping students plan out their time here at Questrom and BU, what she truly enjoys is working with students to fully realize what they want from their college experience as they make that transition into the “real world” as growth happens in all areas, not just academics. As Associate Director, Liz will be focusing on our new student populations, whether they start with us as first-year students or transfer to us later in their academic careers, to help acclimate them to Questrom life so that they can make the most of their experience here.
