What made you choose to work at Ï㽶Ðã?
A huge draw to working at Boston College for me was the Jesuit values. I really love being part of a strong values and mission driven institution, and loving having shared language and goals. I think regardless of religious backgrounds and perspectives, we can all agree that the core of our work is a focus on care for the whole person (Cura Personalis), to think about serving others and caring for your community, and with a focus on reflection and processing.
I also really love the Boston area, was looking for a larger department than I've been a part of previously, and really enjoyed the people I got to meet in my interview process who I eventually got to call colleagues and now so enjoy working alongside!
What has been your favorite memory at Ï㽶Ðã?
I have so many great memories and truly just enjoy the day to day experiences and energy! From working and laughing alongside some wonderful other RDs and Grads to supervising an amazing, highly energized, passionate RA team, to having summer BBQs with the team, to getting coffee and lunch with campus partners and colleagues, and to enjoying Ï㽶Ðã sporting and campus events - I've had a lot of fun in my time here!
What do you love about living in the Boston area?
The Boston area is fun to be in because there are so many things to do, new places to try, and year round activities. I really enjoy that Boston is a city and has city vibes, but is also kind of small, so everything is close and it can be pretty easy to get around by driving, taking the train, or walking. Also, as gal from the midwest, I love being in New England because I feel like there is so much to explore. It's really easy to pop into other states for a day or afternoon and I think just opens the area up for so many new adventures!
