Michelle Gravel

Michelle Gravel joined WashU in 2003 making this her 20th year here-an appropriate milestone to celebrate by joining the DSC. Originally from small town Iowa, Michelle moved to St. Louis following college at Drake University and law school at the University of Iowa, to join the law firm of Bryan Cave. After a few years of practicing law, Michelle shifted careers and joined University Advancement, first fundraising with parents of current students, and since 2007, working with alumni and parent volunteers in the Alumni and Parent Admissions Program. Michelle is a proud city resident who spends most of her time outside of work juggling the activities of her two teenage (yikes!) kids along with her husband.
