LOD Adds New Staff Member

Tim Byrne has joined the Learning and Organizational Development (LOD) unit as a data integration developer. For more than eight years, Tim has worked in higher education spanning different functions and institutions. During the past four years, he worked for Indiana University (IU), first as the assistant and then associate director of admissions. Tim’s interest in data and information systems led him to complete a master’s degree in information systems (MIS) in the Kelley School of Business at IU to broaden his skills with technology and help find new opportunities for improving the many facets of a university. Working with LOD, Tim will take the lead in designing and developing data strategies and systems to extract, transform, and distribute data across OSU Extension. He will be a lead in the implementation of Salesforce, the customer relationship management (CRM), as it is integrated into the organization. In his first week, Tim assisted Jackie with preparing data to share with the university’s Task Force on Racism and Racial Inequities. Please welcome Tim to OSU Extension; he can be reached at byrne.316@osu.edu.
