Skidmore Spotlight: Kelly Mead

Kelly Mead works in the Office of Advancement as an administrative assistant for the Skidmore Fund, designing and preparing mailings, creating and sending emails, and supporting the Presidents Society program, the volunteer program and other initiatives. She also works as a volunteer at events such as Commencement, Reunion and Celebration Weekend.

Mead celebrated 15 years at Skidmore in May. “The community aspect of Skidmore, as well as the administrative duties of the position, drew me to seek employment here, and I found that Skidmore is an amazing and welcoming place,” she said.

She enjoys walking on campus, attending employee fitness classes and using the pool, taking part in social opportunities and networking events on campus, and providing support to Skidmore Cares. 

When not on campus, Mead enjoys traveling, gardening and spending time with her family, friends and two cats. She has also served on the board of the Washington County Historical Society for over 25 years.
