Graduate Student Assistant

"I've been working for the Office of Global Learning for almost 2 years now and I look forward to going to the office everyday. From friendly environment to facing new situations and challenges everyday I've grown as an individual. This job has helped me gain confidence, learn about different opportunities and programs available to the students and network with professionals from different fields. It helped me learn more about my strengths and my weaknesses and helped me understand that knowledge has no limitation you learn a little bit from each place you visit and every person you meet. With friendly staff and supportive supervisor I will always remember them and think about them even after my graduation. It was a life changing experience."
