What I most love about the DRC: The support, and willingness to collaborate. Everyone in the D.R.C. is so friendly and go above and beyond to support our students and each other!
What is one thing I do at the DRC: One of the things I do in the D.R.C. is act as a liaison between the Athletics department and the D.R.C., and provide counseling services to students that qualify both for the D.R.C. and are on one of our Collegiate Sport teams.
What is key to creating community at Palomar: A willingness to collaborate and have hard conversations.
Something else about me: I am married to my community college sweetheart (we began dating as community college athletes), and she also works in the education setting teaching students with disabilities.
