Each month, we will shine a light on our Patriot Connect Change Champions, giving you the chance to get to know the individuals who are here to support you and the George Mason community on the journey to Patriot Connect. Learn about their roles, what motivates and inspires them, and maybe even a fun fact or two.

Q: What excites you the most about Patriot Connect?
A: Patriot Connect is George Mason’s opportunity to achieve something that not many other colleges have accomplished: an all-in-one platform to recruit and serve our Patriots! As a data-focused person, having the ability to get pertinent data without jumping between different platforms is a dream.
Q: How do you see Patriot Connect helping you and your team?
A: Patriot Connect will allow us to have a better holistic view of our recruited students, and will be beneficial in our hand-off of our newly enrolled students to the folks to continue their George Mason journey with orientation.
Q: Who do you want to give a special shoutout to on the Patriot Connect team and why?
A: Shout out to all of our unsung heroes who are getting our current processes, applications, data-flows, migrations, and technical knowledge into Patriot Connect! It’s not an easy job, but I’m very thankful for their knowledge and hard work to leave no stone unturned!
Q: Ask me about…
A: Ask me about learning to play musical instruments, and why Sprite isn’t a soda!
Q: What is something you like to do outside of work?
A: I love to spend time with my wife and son, I love to play music (I play 6 instruments), and I love to build LEGO.
The Patriot Connect team has activated a change network of “Patriot Connect Release 2 Change Champions” to support the adoption of Patriot Connect at George Mason. Units, colleges, or schools impacted by Release 2 have a designated change champion who is here to make the transition to Patriot Connect smooth and successful. The Release 2 change network kicked off in October 2025 and will remain active throughout the implementation and launch of Patriot Connect: Recruitment and Admissions. Your first point of contact for questions should be your designated Patriot Connect Release 2 Change Champion.
