Quinn Kennelly joined the iSchool on November 3 as an office support specialist. She will serve as the primary receptionist on the fourth floor of the iSchool building at 614 E. Daniel Street and will also provide administrative support to Director of Informatics Programs Lisa Bievenue and the Informatics team.
Kennelly earned her bachelor’s degree in rhetoric and media studies from Lewis & Clark College. Prior to joining the iSchool, she held various positions at Marmoset in Portland, Oregon, most recently as a client appreciation manager.
"I am thrilled to begin my journey at the University of Illinois by joining the iSchool's administrative team and providing support to the Informatics and Game Studies & Design departments," said Kennelly. "I look forward to learning and growing as I get to know the wonderful iSchool community of students, faculty, and staff."
In her free time, Kennelly enjoys cooking new recipes, gardening, reading, going to the movies, and watching Chicago White Sox games. After moving from the West Coast, she is also happy to live somewhere with seasons again.
