Biography

Dwayne Arnett has been in his position for more than a year. He previously worked as director of Information Technology for University Prep Schools in Detroit. He managed a team of five technicians, 10 schools and 5,000 K-12 students, and created a helpdesk triage team during COVID for students and parents that were remote schooled.

In his free time, Arnett loves anything outside — camping, bike riding and playing and watching sports, preferably football. He is a cornhole champion.

Being a part of this team at Detroit Mercy is special to Arnett, as it is the first time he's seen the product after it leaves high school. He is amazed by what he's seen in these young adults and is happy that he can be part of their success. That is what motivates Arnett and makes his job so satisfying: being able to help students become the person they want to be.
