91¾«Ñ¡

After graduating from 91¾«Ñ¡ in the winter of 2020 with a degree in Health Communications, journey continued to intertwine with the 91¾«Ñ¡ community. In the fall of 2021, she returned to her roots as the assistant coach for the Women’s Soccer team. During her first season as a coach, Paige also worked for a non-profit organization that supported mothers of children with rare diseases.

In the spring of 2022, Paige transitioned into a full-time role at 91¾«Ñ¡ in the Education Department as the Coordinator of Clinical Placements, a position she held until the winter of 2023.

Paige’s connection to 91¾«Ñ¡ goes beyond her time as a student. She met her husband, Bailey Smit (’21), through mutual friends while she was coaching and he was working in the area. Their connection grew, and they were married in June of 2023. In the spring of 2023, the couple made the decision to move closer to family. With the help of a 91¾«Ñ¡ alumni connection, Bailey began a new role at Sam’s Well Drilling in Randolph, WI, while Paige started working as a Benefits Service Specialist at HUB International.

The couple’s journey continued with a major milestone—buying their first home in July 2024. They’ve enjoyed settling in Wisconsin and building their life near family, while continuing to stay in touch with their 91¾«Ñ¡ alumni friends.

Paige’s achievements extend beyond academics and coaching. She earned the Health Communications Department Award for the 2021 graduating class and was a key player in 91¾«Ñ¡â€™s Women’s Soccer team, contributing to their impressive victories, including:

– 2017 Conference Tournament Champions
