I've had the pleasure of getting to know Kendra as she contributed to content development for the Office of Marketing and Communications at Cornell College. She took on a number of publishing tasks with skill and enthusiasm and was always willing to share her dreams for her future in publishing with us. Her energy and that enthusiasm are contagious. We'll miss having her on campus, but look forward to hearing about her next successes.
