Todd Owens (he/him) has been working in residence life for over a decade and  genuinely loves the work: supporting student staff and helping students build the  kind of communities they would be proud of. 

Todd grew up in Indiana and Michigan before spending 11 years living and working  overseas. That time gave him a deep appreciation for cross-cultural community  and shapes how he thinks about belonging and what it means to show up for  people around you. Most recently, he was a Residence Life Coordinator at Grinnell  College. He now lives on campus with is spouse, so the community he helps build  is also the one he calls home. 

When he's not in his office, you will likely find him on the sidelines cheering on a  Cornell athletic team. He is also a devoted, some might say dedicated to a fault,  fan of the Cubs, Bears, Bulls, and Chelsea
