Professional Interests My professional interests include working with international students and helping transition to life in a new country, emergency and crisis response management, restorative practices and integrating those into student conduct, and working with faith-based student services/organization and helping students feel comfortable practicing their spirituality/religion within the residence halls.
One thing you like about working and/or living in Seattle I like how much there is to do here and there is something for everyone. From watersports, to different types of gyms, movie theaters, shows, the ballet, outdoorsy activities, etc. there is always an activity you can find that you like.
One thing you appreciate about working with students at UW The students here are very intelligent and hardworking. I love listening to whatever project they’re working on. They’re all very passionate and love to talk about their interests.
