Erin Crisp is the VP of Academics and Innovation for Campus. She serves at the hub of organizational spokes that include instructional design, faculty enrichment, product roadmapping, and organizational partnerships. Crisp earned her doctorate in instructional systems technology from Indiana University and loves all things teaching, learning, and technology.
