Bio

Kibby Smith has been advising for multiple degree programs in the College of Arts & Science at MU since 2011 and has been advising for International Studies since 2016. Her previous professional background includes teaching English in Taiwan, Poland, and Seattle, Washington; working in communications at a non-profit organization; and working in advising and support services in graduate and continuing studies at Stephens College. Kibby earned her BA from Drury University and MEd. from Framingham State University. During her junior year of college, she studied abroad in London for a semester and hopes that any student who wishes to study abroad has the opportunity to do so. 

Kibby would like for all students at MU who study abroad to return from their programs changed for the better, having grown and learned more about the world and themselves, and be able to articulate how those experiences impact them academically and personally. She encourages students to reflect on their experiences abroad, to share their experiences with other students across campus, and to become ambassadors for studying abroad.
