Meet Kimberly Zaph

Wellness Program Manager Kimberly Zaph brings personal energy and knowledge about health, wellness and family issues to WVU’s Employee Wellness effort on campus. She plans to build bridges among the many departments and units of the University—helping to spread the successful efforts WVU already has in place to a wider group of people while introducing new programs and resources.

Kimberly believes that WVU can lead West Virginia to a better health status by setting a good example. As an alumnus of WVU and a state native, she understands all too well the startling health statistics of this area, the high rates of heart disease, diabetes and cancer, and has some fantastic ideas for programs that she will be introducing to the University community.

Crucial to this effort are the volunteer worksite wellness coordinators in various buildings, colleges, schools and units. Some of these coordinators have been helping improve employee wellness for a decade or more; others are newly recruited to the cause.

WVU’s President James P. Clements comments on the significance of wellness stating, “I’m always looking forward—where do we want to be in 10, 20, 30 years? This concept also extends to our faculty, staff and students. I’m excited about the opportunities we have to improve our health and well-being through the tremendous resources at WVU. Our facilities, starting with the state-of-the-art Rec Center, are top-notch and we are very fortunate to have the Employee Wellness Program as a vehicle for activities, events and education.”
