Global and Career Advisor:
Joanne Connolly
Joanne grew up in MA and attended three different colleges to get her undergraduate degree. She graduated from Framingham State University with a degree in biology and a concentration in secondary education. Through her experience in substituting, she found that teaching was not for her. However, she enjoyed getting to know her students and discovered a true passion in helping them access higher education. Combining this passion with her experience in the college transfer process, she decided to pursue a career in higher education.
When Joanne's not working, she enjoys Zumba classes, baking, reading, traveling with her husband, Taylor, and singing — both in musicals and in traffic jams.
Joanne takes career appointments for all current students except for those majoring in Communication and Visual and Performing Arts. She takes study abroad appointments for students in the following majors: Business, Computer Science, Education, Math, Psychology, and the Sciences (Bio, Biochem, Forensics).
