Beth LaClair, Ph.D.

Married and widowed at the age of 30 while expecting her daughter McKenna finishing a doctoral degree, life was not what Beth expected it to be. She remarried, with a 17-month-old, only to realize that not all fairy tales have happy endings. After almost 13 years of marriage, it ended in divorce. He’s an amazing dad to my daughter. Her story is not over and am excited about my next chapter.  Be Hopeful. Be Expectant.

LaClair completed her Ph.D. in Higher Education Administration at The University of Alabama in Tuscaloosa, earned an M.AEd. in Higher Education at The University of Akron, Akron, Ohio and a baccalaureate degree in communications from the University of Mount Union, Alliance, Ohio.
