Beverly C. Reid
Director, Career Services

Bev knew she wanted to be the person to help them find their calling and reach their goals. For the past 25 years Bev has been able to not only help students, but be surrounded by wonderful staff who have these same values and lead those staff members to reach their own goals as well as the goals of their university.
