Meet Hall Staff!
Our Hall Staff are here to guide, support, and cheer on every Weasel. They are the true heart of the Purple Palace & make it feel like home each & every day.
Annie Boyle - Rector
Hello everyone! I am so honored to serve as your rector in Pasquerilla West Hall. I attended Notre Dame for my undergraduate education, and the friendships I formed in my hall (Welsh Fam) are relationships I continue to treasure. I also received my Master of Theological Studies at ND and, while in grad school, served as an assistant rector. Prior to becoming a rector, I worked for a number of years in Campus Ministry at the University of Portland. I can’t wait to hear your stories and to walk with you during your time at ND.
Caroline Cannizzaro - Assistant Rector
Hello weasels! I am so excited to continue serving as one of the Assistant Rectors in the Purple Palace this year! I am from Atlanta, GA, and I graduated with a B.S. in Economics from Georgia Tech. Now I am in my 3L (and final) year at Notre Dame Law School! I am a Managing Senior Editor for the Notre Dame Law Review, and I occasionally perform in musicals with PemCo on campus! I love movies, TV shows, and anything Disney! Peace and love!
Elizabeth Fitzgerald - Assistant Rector
Hello everyone! My name is Elizabeth and I am incredibly excited to be serving as your AR next year! I'm originally from Homestead, FL, but have been living in PE for the last four years. I am currently a senior Computer Science major with a minor in Theology here at ND and will be starting my Master's in CS in the Fall. Outside of academics I love to bake, crochet, figure skate, and practice my photography. I am so excited to meet all of you!
