Why did you become a PA?
I’ve been a PA since my first year and I enjoy helping students develop essential skills, like building strong resumes, so they feel confident applying for opportunities during and after college. It’s also a great way for me to prepare for life after graduation, as I’m gaining hands-on experience with career tools, networking, and professional development that will set me up for success.

Why did you become a PA?
I was looking for a job on campus and wanted something unrelated to sports/ the exercise science department. I had a meeting with Emilie for my resume and she told me the CCD was hiring so I applied and it has been the best opportunity ever since.

Why did you become a PA?
I joined in my first year because I thought it would be a great place to work. I’ve loved assisting students with resumes, doing front desk work, and helping the specialists with projects and tasks. I also knew one of the specialists before I started working here.
