Crowe currently serves as the vice president of college advancement at Northeast Wisconsin Technical College.

“I am elated to join the WITC team and to serve the community that has been my family’s home for more than a century,” said Crowe. “I feel incredibly fortunate for this opportunity to continue working for a college focused on student success while enhancing programming and partnerships that serve our students and communities alike.”
Crowe holds a Doctorate of Education in organizational leadership, policy and development from the University of Minnesota, a Master of Science in agriculture education from the University of Wisconsin-River Falls, and a Bachelor of Science in animal science from UW-River Falls.
