Michelle considers the Welcome Center a great place for enrollment staff, prospective students and their families to meet, especially with the beautiful view of Brookside, Mirror Lake and more outside the front windows. She enjoys working with traditional graduate admissions and Virtual Campus enrollment and helping them navigate their career path. She earned her BA in Interpersonal Communication and MA in Professional Communication from IPFW/PFW. She lists George Orwell’s 1984 as her favorite book
and the Smashing Pumpkins as her all-time favorite band.
Michelle’s advice: “There will always be reasons to put off your education, but focus on how to overcome those to reach your goals. After all, everything worth doing takes time and effort.”

Olivia is a perfect person to help students start their USF academic story – she’s a writer who loves exploring new places. Brookside Mansion has become her favorite spot on campus because of its rich history and her love for old houses and unique architecture. Olivia earned a bachelor’s degree in Secondary Language Arts Education from Anderson University and enjoys spending her free time pursuing outdoor adventures.
Olivia’s advice: “College is a unique time of freedom, growth and connecting with people in a way that creates lifelong friendships. While studying can be stressful and is very important for success in the future, don’t forget to have fun and enjoy this time, too!”
