First Post!

Welcome to my blog! My name is Vanessa Ruggieri and I am an Admissions Officer at Rhode Island College. I am currently wrapping up my Master of Business Administration program with a concentration in Human Resources at the University of Rhode Island and will then apply to the URI/RIC Joint Ph.D. in Education program this winter, which is why I am taking this course.
