Alex Kruithof (Fish)

Hello! My name is Alex Kruithof and I’m from Holland, Michigan. I graduated from NMU in May 2021 with a Bachelor’s degree in Fisheries and Wildlife Management. During my undergrad I was a Resident Adviser in Cedar Hall, Venture House. After graduating I went to Alaska and worked at a fish hatchery but couldn’t help wanting to come back to Marquette and work in housing and residence life once again. 

In my free time I enjoy just about anything, whether it's playing sports, hiking, camping, sitting in a hammock, chilling inside having movie marathons, or playing video games and board games. I can’t wait to meet everyone this year so make sure to stop by and say hi!
