Chris Paasch
Associate Director of Operations
Education: Coe College '06
Job Responsibilities: My role in our office is to manage everything that a student doesn’t see when they come to campus. This includes communications, scheduling visits, our website information, and our database system. It is my responsibility to help students learn about why Coe is such a special place.
What I love about my job: The environment is what makes my job exciting. My position is very logical and procedural, but I still have the enjoyment of working with students on a daily basis.
My hobbies: Being active (tennis, squash, mountain biking, softball, jogging, skiing, etc.), traveling (12 countries and counting), listing to new music, watching movies, reading, and spending time with dog, Mollie!
Favorite Coe Tradition: I really enjoy new student orientation. It gives everyone a chance to see the entire incoming class for a few days and get accustomed to college life before it actually starts.
Cedar Rapids Favorites:
Eat: Tomaso's Pizzeria, Brewed Awakenings, Mt. Vernon Inn (Greek), El Super Burrito, and Thai Flavors
Museums: Art Museum, Czech Museum, Brucemore
Time killer: Lately, I’ve been tinkering on refurbishing an old bicycle, I try to throw some pottery as much as I can and I spend much of my free time with my family/friends.
