Julianne Wallace will serve as vice president for mission, beginning Aug. 1, the College announced Friday afternoon in a press release.

Wallace graduated from the University of Mary Washington in 2002 with a bachelor’s degree in music performance. She then earned her Master of Theological Studies from Washington Theological Union in 2010 and Doctor of Ministry in educational leadership from the Virginia Theological Seminary in 2019.

“I am delighted to welcome her to my leadership team and look forward to our collaboration,” Conboy said.
