About Us
Jonathan Baker ~ Director of Dual Enrollment
I started my career in public education teaching 7th grade social studies through AP and dual credit US History, I also served as a public-school
administrator. What excites me about working with Dual Enrollment, and education in
general, is the opportunity help facilitate and provide next level learning experiences
to students. As a former teacher and administrator, it was always a great feeling
to help students achieve their goals in and out of the classroom; and now getting
to help them achieve at a collegiate level is more exciting. I am excited and proud
to be a part of Trine University’s Office of Dual Enrollment
Graham Reeves ~ Assistant Director of Dual Enrollment
I am the Assistant Director of Dual Enrollment at Trine University. I started my
career as an ESL (English as a Second Language) teacher, teaching in Mexico, South
Korea, and the U.S. Throughout my career, one of my goals has been to prepare people
for the next part of their lives. I am dedicated to this mission and I am glad that
I can do this for high school students who are transitioning onto their next stage
of life here at Trine. Since I began in 2019, I have enjoyed working with school administrators,
teachers and students themselves. It has been very interesting to see the growth in
online learning and I am excited to see what might be next for students in our program.
