Dear Students, Faculty, and Staff,
As the incoming president of Minneapolis College of Art and Design, I am excited to meet you and join your campus community in June.
I am a huge MCAD fan. Your great college fuels the arts and creative economy, enlivens museums and galleries, sparks societal change, and powers design and innovation in corporations, nonprofits, and small businesses. Your work touches, inspires, and connects us in our common humanity.
It will be a pleasure to lead MCAD on its continued path of growth and sustainability. We will keep MCAD at the forefront of transformational curricula and programs. We will promote access, inclusion, wellbeing, and artistic and career fulfillment for all. Operationally, we will move forward as a thriving, agile, and resilient enterprise.
My aim is always to listen, learn, and understand diverse perspectives. Upon my arrival, I will reach out to engage the campus community, and my door will be open to you.
In the meantime, thank you for all you do to make MCAD such an extraordinary and vibrant place. I look forward to supporting you in all that you do!
Warm regards,
