Bio
Angela Holman Ed.D.
I have had the pleasure of knowing and working with Dr. Zoromski for well over a decade, both in the 7-12 setting and higher education setting. Most recently, he has been instrumental in keeping the communication lines open and helping take steps forward in Carthage High School’s partnership with Crowder College. He cares about kids and goes out of his way to provide help and guidance. His contributions are truly valuable to our school and community.
Pietro Sasso, Ph.D.
Dr. Zoromski is an exceptional educational leader in higher education. He has an astute capacity to navigate vertical and horizontal power or administrative structures with ease. This is remarkable given the contemporary challenges related to postsecondary education. Dr. Zoromski additionally has a very strong understanding of globalization and possesses the cross-cultural competencies to advise students and colleages across all cultures. I continue to be impressed by the depth of his passion for developing organizations and individuals that he exudes. It has been impressive to see him develop professionally for a field which he describes as both a vocation and a labor of love.
