I am still learning resources at Ventura College but I will never leave a student with a question unanswered or a need unmet. I will always seek to build relationships and collaborate with departments on campus and in the Ventura County community and provide students with a warm hand off to those who can help if I’m unable to do so.

Students always come to saying that they don’t speak Spanish well and that they want to learn “proper” Spanish. One of my primary goals as a Spanish teacher, is to validate the linguistic capital that they already have and to build confidence in using their Spanish skills without thinking about what they don’t know, but rather how much Spanish they already have.

In my role as M.E.S.A. Program Coordinator, I’ve learned how to navigate multiple systems and processes that can directly support both students and colleagues. Such as, educational systems. I know how to move through the community college processes such as counseling referrals, which helps me guide students who are often first-generation and unfamiliar with these steps. I also understand how to leverage transfer pathways and the university admissions processes, so I can coach students through preparing competitive transfer applications.
