Jeri Preston

Jeri is the Communications & Events Coordinator for the Honors Program. She manages all Honors social media outlets and handles major events, including Kickoff and Graduation. She was a key contributor in Honors Global Digital Citizenship (HGDC) and is collaborator on Honors DEI initiatives.

Jeri is a recent graduate of U-M's Center for the Study of Higher and Postsecondary Education, earning an MA in Postsecondary Administration & Development. Her undergraduate work was completed at Western Michigan University in English (Writing), Public Relations and Business Communications.

An avid reader, she participates in book clubs and has a collection of vintage cookbooks, from which she blogs old recipes with fresh ingredients. Pets, gardening, travelling, and her family fill her extra time. Between she and her family members, they have studied at seven Michigan postsecondary institutions, so they’re always cheering for someone’s team.
