Coordinator & Advisor

Hi, I’m Audra! I’m excited to be your guide and support throughout your journey in the Honors Program. My role includes advising students and organizing engaging events throughout the semester, all with the goal of helping you thrive and make the most of your experience. When I’m not at work, you’ll likely find me exploring the trails of our beautiful Wasatch Mountains with my dog. My family and I are passionate about outdoor adventures—we love fishing, paddleboarding, camping in the summer, and skiing in the winter. I’m also an avid traveler, with a special interest in historical sites both in the U.S. and abroad. But above all, my favorite way to spend my freetime is getting lost in a good book. I look forward to working with you and seeing you succeed!
Abigail Child
Administrative Specialist

Hi, my name is Abi, and I'm the friendly face you'll find at the front desk in the Honors Center! I'm here to help with any questions you might have about the honors program, its functions, or classes. I graduated from Utah Valley University with a bachelor’s degree in psychology and my positive college experience inspired me to pursue a career in higher education. Returning to Weber State feels like coming home for me, as I am originally from Ogden, Utah. Outside of work, I'm an avid dog lover and proud owner of two adorable beagles, Wendell and Sophie. In my free time, I enjoy yoga, rollerblading, karaoke and spending quality time with my husband and family. I'm also a foodie with a particular love for Thai food and pizza. When I'm not exploring new activities or cuisines, you can often find me playing my guitar or ukulele. If you're a fan of Lord of the Rings, Harry Potter, Parks and Rec, or New Girl, you'll find a kindred spirit in me—I'm always up for a great conversation about any of these beloved series.

Marketing & Social Media

Hi! I'm Bailey. I manage marketing and social media for the Honors Program (psst, you should go follow our Instagram @WeberStateHonors). It's my job to create promotional materials for the program - anything from class posters to event fliers and more. I also have the privilege of visiting Honors classes and events to take photos of the brilliant work our students and professors are doing.
As a Weber State and Honors Program Alumni, there's no place I'd rather be. Come stop by and say hello! If I'm not in the Honors Center, you'll probably find me in the middle of a Harry Potter book or listening to Taylor Swift.
