Hi! I am Joy Hamm, and I am excited to serve as the Assistant Vice President for Enrollment Management here at Young Harris College! As a graduate of a small, liberal arts college, I personally know the value of receiving an education from a place like YHC. I have worked in higher education for over 20 years, and I love using my experiences to help students and their families through the admissions and financial aid processes. I can’t wait to meet you!

ADMISSIONS COUNSELOR

Area: All of North GA (minus Towns and Union Counties) and International Students

My name is Adam Trotman, and I am from Demorest, Georgia. I graduated from YHC in May 2017 with a B.A. in Music Education. After my first tour of YHC, I knew this was where I was supposed to be! I worked in the Office of Admissions as a Student Representative giving tours of the Enchanted Valley, and now I have the opportunity to serve incoming freshmen! I was also a part of the YHC Choirs, Greek Life, and Theater. You can usually catch me geeking out over superheroes and Disney!

Admissions Counselor

Area: South Georgia and Out-of-State Students

My name is Will Tison, and I am from Hayesville, North Carolina. I graduated from YHC in May of 2023 with a B.S. in History. As a lifelong resident of Western North Carolina and North Georgia, I spent a significant amount of time near YHC when I was growing up, and when I took my first official tour of YHC, I knew this was where I wanted to attend college. When I was a student, I worked on campus as a Peer Mentor for three semesters, and I served as an Orientation Leader in the Spring of 2022. I’m so excited to have the opportunity to serve incoming freshmen from South Georgia and across the United States and I look forward to meeting you soon! Go Mountain Lions!
