Noelle, Taylor, Andre, Caroline, and Juan are the unsung heroes of the College of Education. These 5 graduate assistants do everything from managing admissions, tackling Salesforce, creating community, recruiting students, and ensuring all the events and logistics are well organized. These people work so hard in their positions, their courses, and all the other things they have in their lives.  I am endlessly grateful to be part of an incredible team and excited to see where their academic journey’s take them.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

To: Brie Escobedo
From: Major Exploration Partners team in Academic Advising<\/h4>\n\n\n\n

Brie has been an amazing partner since her arrival at UCCS. She is always willing to brainstorm, share resources, problem solve and bring her creative energies to the challenges we can face in support of students. Her efforts have been at the core of the Career Center’s mission to develop a culture of career at UCCS and establish a growing network of Career Influencers. During considerable transition with the Career Center team, as the senior member of the staff, Brie has provided leadership, consistency, and regularly gone above and beyond the scope of her job description. Brie has the mindset that “we are better together”. Her seemingly endless enthusiasm and deep expertise in her field are two of her many assets. We look forward to our continued partnership!<\/p><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

To: Charlie Kuehler
From: Crista Hill<\/h4>\n\n\n\n

Charlie’s ability to plainly explain very complex (to me) financial and HR tasks to me has been vital to my success in my new role.

<\/div>\n\n\n\n

To: Cindy Brown
From: Sarah Long<\/h4>\n\n\n\n

Half the time I don’t know where Cindy is because she is all over campus setting up tech, computers, and all the things for COE. She is constantly on the go and works incredibly hard to make sure everyone within the college has everything they need to be successful. Cindy is the COE glue that holds us together. Thank you Cindy! <\/p><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

To: Dr. Malikah Marrus
From: Courtney Lopez<\/h4>\n\n\n\n

As a newer staff member, working remote, Malikah had made every effort to make me feel welcomed. Malikah continually goes above and beyond in her role, whether it is being available for a meeting within a few hours notice, answering a quick question via text or advocating for a students needs, Malikah leads by example and brings a calming energy to her students and staff members around her. <\/p><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

To: Lauren Harriott
From: Ann Amicucci<\/h4>\n\n\n\n

Lauren went above and beyond in advising one of our English majors who is interested in pursuing graduate education in another country. I imagine Lauren has a lot on her plate in advising students pursuing graduate work at UCCS, so I am incredibly grateful that she took the time to help a student who is considering graduate work elsewhere. She shared extensive suggestions and guidance and left the student enthusiastic to research more. Thank you, Lauren, for your outstanding student support!<\/p><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

<\/div>\n\n\n\n
