Leadership

This march I celebrated 5 years with ASU Prep! I started as an Admissions Advisor and have transitioned to Partnership Operations Manager. ASU Prep partners with schools close to home in Arizona, but also other states and countries. Learning about our partnership schools and students in all areas of the world is fascinating. It is easily the best part of my job.
