Academic Success Coordinator
Hometown: Del Rio, TX
Education: Angelo State University - B.A., M.A.
About Me: I’m a first generation college graduate. During my college experience, I studied English literature for both my degrees, was a member of Alpha Phi Omega, and the editor of the peer published Oasis magazine for multiple years. As a student, I had a variety of campus jobs such as working as a Student Assistant in the Acquisitions department in the Library, a Peer Mentor with the Freshman College, a Student Assistant in the Tutoring and Supplemental Instruction Center, a Writing Tutor in the Writing Center, a Clerk in the university bookstore, and taught English 1301 and English 1301 Developmental courses. I have a passion for helping people succeed in a way that works best for their learning style. When I’m not working, I enjoy taking care of my houseplants, hanging out with my cat Sophie, spending time with my family and close friends, and reading!
