The foundation of her passion for this work stems from her experiences living in Portugal, Singapore, and Spain, traveling extensively as a member of a military family, as well as meaningful career opportunities that shaped her worldview and commitment to helping others broaden their perspectives.

With nearly fifteen years of professional experience, she has dedicated her career to improving the academic and social support for historically marginalized and underserved populations, with special attention to improving campus climate and sense of belonging within higher education communities.

Dr. Carroll engages in her work from an affirming stance by underscoring that intersection identities inform our daily experiences.

In addition to her professional life, she also enjoys spending time (virtually, of course) with friends and family, getting take-out from restaurants she hasn’t tried before, taking daily walks, and becoming reacquainted with Oklahoma City having returned back to her home state from living in Colorado.

 

Program Description: 

When is the last time you practiced intention while reflecting on your life experiences and how they’ve shaped your perspectives of the world? All of us have enriching or defining life experiences that contribute to who we are and how we lead and in our personal and professional lives. In her own reflections having lived in Portugal, Singapore, and Spain, Carroll shares how her living and traveling abroad provided a foundation for her deep understanding and appreciation of inclusion, equity, and diversity (IED) and its importance across all sectors. Additionally, she posits that a genuine and embedded practices of IED benefit individuals and groups by broadening perspectives about ethical behavior.
