About

Kelly McDorman works with Charlie and Kathy to lead HEDS in all of its work. Kelly specifically manages day-to-day operations, as well as oversees finances and budgeting. While Charlie and Kathy spend much of their time traveling, Kelly primarily fulfills her role from our office at Wabash College and oversees the rest of our team.

Prior to joining the HEDS, Kelly taught college communication classes, including public speaking and small group communication. She also pursued a PhD from Indiana University.

Kelly believes that HEDS can be an asset to colleges and universities and says, “I think one of the hallmarks of our work is that we don’t use a cookie-cutter approach. We know every institution has its own culture, strengths, and areas for improvement. We work with institutions within their unique circumstances. There isn’t a single approach that works for all.”
