College Transition & Success CoordinatorTabitha Giacalone

I am glad to be part of the McLean School community as the College Transition and Success Coordinator. I hold dual Master’s degrees in Student Affairs in Higher Education and Environmental Education from Slippery Rock University.

My background includes working at a range of higher education institutions; from small, private liberal arts colleges to large, public research universities. I’ve supported college students through my roles in residential life, student engagement, and student support services, and have also taught first-year leadership and major-specific courses.

These experiences have given me a deep understanding of how colleges operate, how to help students identify and access campus resources, and how to take a holistic approach to student success. I believe that with the right plan and support system, every student can succeed!

In my free time, you can likely find me with my spouse, Alex, and 2 year old daughter, CeCe. We spend lots of time in nature, looking at airplanes, reading books, and exploring new places.
