My role at UCSD |
|
I help students navigate their journey to
graduate or professional school as an Advisor with the
Career Services Center’s Professional and Graduate School
Opportunities Program. Additionally, I serve as a Career Peer
Educator Program coordinator and supervise the Professional &
Graduate School Peer. |
|
My career path |
|
After numerous involvements in student
affairs and student government while in undergrad and in law
school, I became a lawyer in the San Francisco Bay Area. I
practiced law in the intellectual property and general
commercial litigation fields for a while before deciding to
make a career change and go “back to school” for a job in
student services. I began working here at UCSD in January
of 2005. |
|
The rewards in doing what I do |
|
Vividly remembering what it was like to feel
“lost” when I was a student looking toward grad school, I
enjoy being able to help today’s students find their way
toward their futures. |
|
My words of wisdom to students |
|
There are
many roads that lead to the same destination. Take the one
that suits you best even if it’s not the one everyone else
is taking. And don’t forget to have fun along the way! |
|
When I'm not on campus... |
|
. . . I hang
out with my friends and family, listen to music
(rock/pop/alt/punk), go to the movies and theater, carouse
about town, sing, read, write (bad poetry, screenplays), and
enjoy the beautiful weather and beaches here in San Diego!
