Keith is the Assistant Dean of Students & Director of Residence Life here at Lehigh. Prior to arriving at Lehigh, Keith worked with the Residential Life staff at Columbia University. Academically, he has an MBA from Lehigh, a master's degree in International Educational Development with a concentration in Humanitarian Emergencies from Columbia University, and a degree in Philosophy from Gettysburg College. As part of his academic experience he was also fortunate to spend a year studying at the University of Melbourne in Melbourne, Australia. He is originally from Rhode Island, and consequently has pretty high standards about what qualifies as fresh seafood. Outside of his work Keith enjoys the performing arts and going to concerts, wandering around and exploring the street art in a new city, being by the ocean, playing sports and staying active (at the moment this means long-distance cycling, hiking, kayaking, and looking for his golf balls in the woods), and is a fan of 90s disaster movies. He's also known for his office plants (currently under construction in our new office space) and responding to messages with well-timed gifs. His jokes are consistent, and sometimes funny.

Chloe is also one of our two Associate Directors of Residence Life. She received her master's degree in Higher Education Counseling/Student Affairs from West Chester University. Her graduate degree was preceded by a Bachelor of Science in Applied Mathematics with a concentration in Finance from West Chester University (WCU).
