“I am thrilled to be joining the NKU family! In my research of the campus and its plans for the future, I was overjoyed to see the focus on student success. The ‘Success by Design’ framework resonated with me and my work over the past few years and I look forward to leading the efforts to begin implementation,” Brown said. “The excitement from the faculty, staff and students about the plan and [President Ashish Vaidya’s] leadership are the key ingredients to make this a success, and it will ultimately have a significant impact on the Northern Kentucky region. I look forward to joining the team and collaborating with the campus and the community as we work to support students in achieving their goals.”

Brown received a bachelor’s degree from Wake Forest University and a J.D. from Wake Forest University School of Law. She has been involved in the HERS Leadership program, the AASCU Millennium Leadership Initiative and she is a graduate of the Harvard Institute of Educational Management.
