Kerry Stamp, Ph.D.

Colleen stood out as a leader among our group of Spring 2012 Peer Advisors at the Office of International Programs. She always exceeded expectations and volunteered as much of her time possible to assist our office in critical publicity and marketing activities. She is a good presenter and has outstanding people skills. We miss having Colleen's help in our office since she graduated!
