Dr. Alice Arredondo
I am a successful enrollment management and admissions leader, both on college campuses and in the EdTech space. I am passionate about education, with an affinity for higher education, strategic enrollment management, and the student experience, from new student recruitment through student persistence to graduation. I partner with clients to build strategic plans, considering the uniqueness of each college/university, their student populations, their organizational structure and resources, and their enrollment goals.
My WHY has always been helping students find their best fit, identifying the college or university that can support them in best achieving their educational and life goals.
​
In my free time, I enjoy reading a good book; running a charcuterie company with a dear friend; cheering on the Kansas City Chiefs, St. Louis Cardinals, and Kansas Jayhawks; and spending time with my husband, Rudy, and our three kids, Avery (14), Logan (11), and Hadlee (8).
