\"christie-st-john-tuck-school-of-business-at-dartmouth-web\"St-John returns to Vanderbilt from the Tuck School of Business<\/strong> at Dartmouth College, where she has served as Senior Associate Director of Admissions and Recruiting since 2004.

Previously St-John held roles in marketing, as well as in oil and gas trading. A Nashville native, she holds a Master\u2019s degree and Ph.D. from Vanderbilt. St-John has lived abroad and travelled to 70 countries for both work and pleasure.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe are excited to welcome Christie back to Vanderbilt,\u201d said Jim Bradford<\/strong>, Dean of the Owen Graduate School. \u201cShe combines a vast global experience with a keen understanding and appreciation of what makes a top graduate management program.\u201d<\/p>\n

Tami Fassinger<\/strong>, Chief Recruiting Officer for the Owen Graduate School, added that St-John would also play a key role in the school\u2019s larger strategy of aligning incoming student career objectives with placement results on a broad geographic scale.<\/p>\n

\u201cChristie\u2019s ability to relate to our global talent pool is invaluable to where we\u2019re going as a school. We\u2019re glad to have her back on our team.\u201d Fassinger said. \u201cI hired Christie in her first tenure at Vanderbilt. We\u2019ve missed her talent, as well as her international mindset and far-reaching network.\u201d<\/p>\n

St-John will handle recruiting and admissions for the full-time MBA and one-year Master of Finance (MSF) programs.<\/p>\n

\u201cVanderbilt has seen a great deal of positive momentum in recent years,\u201d St-John said. \u201cI am pleased to have the opportunity to increase the school\u2019s reach, both in the U.S. and globally.\u201d<\/p>\n
