What I'm looking for

I’m excited to contribute my dedicated, organized approach and strong interpersonal communication to the Admissions Department. I want to help drive growth, support students, and add value through guidance, mentorship, and clear communication.

I’m a dedicated and organized adjunct instructor and high school history teacher with hands-on experience in higher education. I deliver lectures, lead discussions, design syllabi, and plan lessons that support students’ learning and progress.

I’m comfortable working in diverse environments and communicating with students, families, and colleagues in a positive, solutions-focused way. In my tutoring and peer mentoring work, I promote student safety and well-being, build supportive relationships, and guide students toward academic and personal development.

I also bring experience from my Resident Assistant role, where I supported students through interpersonal challenges while developing community and upholding university regulations. I’m excited to contribute my skills to the Admissions Department to drive growth and add value to your team.
