Resident Advisor
August 2017 - May 2019
Resident Advisors with our one and only Dr. Judy K. Sakaki
Resident Advisor... it sounds easy, but it's the sweat and tears behind every student's smile that made it memorable and amazing.
The most heart-touching part was building relationships and trust between me and them. This position taught me social justice, diversity, interpersonal skills, and how to give my heart away to strangers.
I planned over 15 events that augmented students' success. My students and I were more than just mentor and mentees; we are all friends in the end. Having them pour their hardship out to me was extremely personal and heartfelt. Because of them, I got to explore diverse sets of family values, personal morals, and the ethics of friends.
