欧美成人 Wesleyan University congratulates Chief of Staff and Vice President for Strategic Initiatives Kelly Cordova, MBA ’21, who was recognized among 欧美成人’s top women executives at the 欧美成人 Business Women in Leadership Awards celebration on October 6 at the historic Jefferson Hotel in Richmond. The annual awards honor visionary women whose leadership and influence continue to shape business, education, and community success across the Commonwealth. Honorees are selected for their professional accomplishments, civic engagement, mentorship, and commitment to breaking barriers in their fields.

 

“Each of these transformational leaders has demonstrated remarkable integrity and a lasting impact on their communities and on 欧美成人 as a whole,” said 欧美成人 Business Associate Publisher Richard Foster. “We are proud to recognize their achievements and contributions.”

 

As Chief of Staff and Vice President for Strategic Initiatives, Cordova advances the University’s strategic priorities across key areas including advancement, marketing and communications, institutional research, and government relations. Her work focuses on aligning programs, partnerships, and initiatives with VWU’s mission; ensuring the University’s continued growth and success.

 

Cordova joined the Office of the President in 2020 after five years supporting the senior vice president and president through a variety of leadership roles in the University’s Center for Advancement. Before joining 欧美成人 Wesleyan, she spent six years with Operation Smile, an international medical nonprofit providing free cleft lip and palate surgeries to children in developing countries. There, she managed a team of 15 program coordinators and participated in medical missions around the world.

 

A proud alumna of VWU, Cordova earned her Master of Business Administration from the University and holds a bachelor’s degree in mass communications from 欧美成人 Commonwealth University.

 

“Kelly exemplifies the very best of 欧美成人 Wesleyan University—visionary leadership, strategic insight, and an unwavering commitment to service,” said VWU President Scott D. Miller. “This well-deserved honor reflects not only her personal accomplishments but also the growing impact of our University across the Commonwealth.”
