A member of the North Central faculty since 2006, Kathleen began serving as a faculty mentor for the men’s lacrosse team in 2021.  She previously has served as an academic advisor and instructor of the First Year Experience course focused on study skills, social emotional development, critical thinking, and successful college transitions.  As a former elementary and secondary principal, foster parent, and mother of five (including an alum of North Central College), Kathleen is familiar with student athletes navigating competing demands on their time. She is anxious to support their individual journeys towards successful careers and lives of meaning.

“There is no one answer key for everyone, but many paths to success. My job is to assure students are making progress on the path they are forging in order to fulfill their aspirations and foster a life of meaning.”
