“We are thrilled that Isabel is joining the team. Raising the profile and ensuring the success of professional and technical universities through collaboration is at the heart of University Alliance’s mission.

“I am excited to have joined University Alliance as Network Lead. When a network is successful, it can make a huge difference to all involved, by strengthening connections and identifying and finding solutions to common issues.
