Matriculate

Senior Director, Advising Fellowship Experience & Impact

I led the national strategy for a multi-state virtual college advising program serving 3,000+ high school students annually through 900 undergraduate volunteers, ensuring high-quality advising and maintaining enrollment rates above 94% across diverse sites, even during pandemic disruptions. Stepping into a newly created role, I built and scaled the program delivery team from the ground up, doubling team size and managerial capacity while centering data-informed, equity-driven implementation.
I developed real-time monitoring dashboards to track stakeholder engagement and advising milestones, partnered with cross-functional teams to enhance digital safety compliance and volunteer management systems, and integrated just-in-time training content and Slack-based peer problem-solving communities to increase volunteer retention and learner outcomes. This work required fast iteration, resourcefulness, and cross-functional coordination to build scalable systems in a resource-constrained environment while maintaining impact, accountability, and continuous learning.
