Joe Van Allen

Joe supports the Career Hub on campus across three dimensions: Data Analytics, Communication, and Field Experience. Through data analytics, he collaborates with the other career centers on campus to help gather outcomes information for the First Destination Survey, while also providing analysis on the impact the centers have in supporting the career development of UMass students. He also manages the web presence and social media accounts for the Hub alongside our graduate student Nayelle, which both educates the students on campus and celebrates their many accomplishments. He also collaborates with the Field Experience Program Manager to facilitate the field experience programs on campus, which includes processing experiences for credit and ensuring fair and equitable access to professional opportunities for all students.

When he's not working at UMass, he enjoys being a part of community theater productions, cooking, and biking around the Pioneer Valley.
