Her work has spanned areas such as engineering, strategy, product and services development, business and process transformation, and service delivery. She has always been passionate about helping women advance their careers.
Howland is an active leader with DiscoverE and is the campus liaison executive for Women in Technology at Clarkson. She is on Clarkson’s Honor’s Program Advisory Council and was recognized this year as one of Good Housekeeping’s "10 Women Changing the Way We See the World" as a leader in science and technology. She has two grown daughters.
