My role at UCSD |
|
I assist departments with the employment of
students in on-campus jobs. This includes training, policy
and procedure implementation and interpretation, and quality
assurance of personnel actions. |
|
My career path |
|
I began with and am still involved in the
helping professions. High school and college years saw me
working as a physical therapy assistant. After graduating
with a degree in social work, I began employment with
low-income housing for the City of San Diego. I then moved
to the San Diego County Department of Social Services. My
employment with UCSD began in 1983 when I was hired by the
Financial Aid Office, Student Employment. Our division
joined the Career Services Center in 1985. |
|
The rewards in doing what I do |
|
Ensuring that students are employed fairly
and serving as a reliable resource for departments. |
|
My words of wisdom to students |
|
Be timely and persistent, and always follow
through. |
|
When I'm not on campus... |
|
I can be found enjoying my family – husband,
children, grandchildren – and friends. My garden is a
National Wildlife Federation-recognized backyard habitat.
Reading and walking are other pleasurable pastimes. And
someday I’ll finish and publish my family cookbook! |
