Dear Team,

I am thrilled to announce that Lea Barthuly will be joining the Alumni Association as the Alumni Education & Professional Programs Coordinator, starting Monday, Jan. 29. Lea may be a familiar face to most of you, as she has worked in the Eck Visitors Center since October 2017.

Lea will work most closely with me on Alumni Education programs and Sharon in support of Career/Professional programs, and she brings project management, technical, and interpersonal skills to the position. Prior to coming to Notre Dame, Lea most recently served as a client support representative for a technology company in Jacksonville, FL. As a lifelong learner, she has two masters degrees and has lived and traveled around the world — growing up in Germany and studying and teaching English to high school students in China.

Lea recently moved to the South Bend area with her husband, Josh, who is a grad student in Notre Dame’s Philosophy department.

Please join me in welcoming Lea to the team!
