Friends! I’ve joined @TeamEnrollify as the new podcast host of Confessions of a Higher Ed SMM! Every other week, I’ll talk with those who are grinding every day in social media — we’ll share experiences, lessons learned, and spill the tea. First episode drops January 25! (1/2)
"If you’re doing good social listening, you can really see what [your students are] talking about and you won’t just find one little pocket, because they’re so invested in your campus and in your region."

In another career first, I’m teaching a pre-conference session at the 2023 AMA Symposium, “Developing Student Creators to Enhance an Authentic Content Strategy,” with my esteemed colleagues @josieahlquist, @RachelRodemann, and @TweetsbyCYM: ama.org/events/confere…
I forced a bot to watch over 1,000 hours of Diners, Drive-Ins, and Dives and then asked it to write a Diners, Drive-Ins, and Dives episode of its own. Here is the first page.
2) I used to thing I could miraculously do three things at once. Learning to ask for specific help has been life changing. A tie delivered to the funeral home, a mountain of catering set out while we’re at the service, a gluten free dinner... Tell your people how to help you.
1) I used to be afraid to say what was going on in my life, but look, when you’re not afraid to say why you aren’t 100%, your colleagues can carry your load. I’ve lost count of emails I’ve been gently booted from & texts that have come back “Done. Don’t think about it any more.”
It’s always a rush getting through the first month of the fall semester. Adding in my new role, my first comprehensive campaign, the launch of our new strategic plan and a massive social media audit and it’s been a gauntlet. But that’s all felt doable.
Until…
I'm honored and excited to present at #AMAHigherEd alongside @TheJennyLi, @TweetsbyCYM, and @RachelRodemann. We will teach attendees how to select students, build a training program, and construct a system to maintain a high-performing group of student content creators.
"I have always loved working with young people, and the opportunity to be a mentor is so fulfilling too. I love watching as my students grow, develop, and go on to do amazing things."
@RachelRodemann is the Dir of Comms @UAFS and a Student Social Media Academy coach!
I appreciate our skip-level meetings because I get to ask important questions about the company and our business, and then I also get to ask Liz which Era she's most excited to see next year during the Eras Tour.
