Karen is the right choice for Pace at this time.”
As Pace’s vice president for Human Resources, Robilotta is the Chief HR Officer of the University and plays a key role in providing strategic leadership in the planning and implementation of quality-based, integrated human resources programs for all officers, faculty, and staff.
