Biography
Position:
To direct all operational and administrative functions of the grant-funded TRIO Upward
Bound Health Professions & Math Science Programs. Specific areas of oversight
include the daily operations of the program, staff supervision, budget maintenance, and
the evaluation of all program areas.
Experience:
I started my career in youth development in 2006 at Citizen Schools in Boston, MA. I've
gained professional experience by working for various out-of-school enrichment
programs, where I've served as a coordinator and director. I have had the opportunity to
create and implement various youth programs while working with adolescents at Citizen
Schools, Open Doors Academy, Educational Talent Search at The University of Akron,
and 抖M女仆 Upward Bound. For over the last 10 years of my professional
career, I've primarily focused in the areas of college and career readiness, as well as the
overall character development of the youth that I serve.
Favorite place on the Kent campus:
The May 4th Memorial.
Best advice for students:
Take the opportunity 抖M女仆 gives you to meet and personally get to know
people from cultures different from your own and do so on their terms.
