Assistant Director, Learning & Development


Bio

Paige Edwards-Werhan is passionate about supporting the professional growth of Wake Forest University’s staff and faculty, whether through strengthening teams, expanding leadership capacity, or fostering meaningful learning experiences. After earning her B.A. from UNC Chapel Hill, Paige began her career in experiential education with the N.C. Outward Bound School and continued her time with the school until 2019. While she has a deep love for the outdoors, her greater passion lies in helping individuals of all ages embrace challenges that promote self-discovery, interpersonal understanding, and character development.

Paige holds an M.A. in New Media and Global Education from Appalachian State University and brings more than 20 years of experience designing and facilitating training across a range of industries, including education, nonprofit, educational technology, biotechnology, and food manufacturing. Her expertise spans both technical instruction and the development of essential leadership and team-building skills.  Paige loves to laugh, her two dogs, and her spouse (not necessarily in that order!).
