Being here at URI as the Community Engagement Coordinator is exactly where I am supposed to be, and many things contributed to me getting here! I was an unconventional student, I was a little bit older and worked full time at a Boys &amp; Girls Clubs as an undergraduate. I studied abroad in Greece, with plans to stay a few weeks and ended up there for 9 months! I have worked in public schools, for international nonprofits and for public beaches. I am fortunate to have a wide variety of professional, personal and educational experiences that created the person I am! I am thankful for all the inspiring individuals I have met, and continue to meet along my journey. Bringing people together to serve, share resources and create sustainable and reciprocal relationships is the common theme of everything I do, and I incorporate that into all aspects of my life. <\/p>\n<p><strong>When not supporting career and experiential education at URI, you will find me:<\/strong>  At the beach, or thinking about being at the beach, with my 2 young daughters. I thrive in summer, so any chance to beat the cold and go somewhere warm I take it! I am always planning a new adventure or connecting with friends from a past one. I serve on committees for the Town of Narragansett and sometimes run for public office. I love to learn new things, connect people together and read books.<\/p>\n<p><strong>What Strength, Value, or Personality trait do you identify with most and why?<\/strong> Gratitude is the value I appreciate the most, because there is always something to be grateful for. I practice gratitude throughout my day, looking for wins and for everything that is going right. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":706,"featured_media":51783,"parent":0,"template":"","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":"","_links_to":"","_links_to_target":""},"peoplegroups":[980,523,529],"class_list":["post-51680","people","type-people","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","peoplegroups-community-civic-engagement","peoplegroups-emprel","peoplegroups-eec"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/web.uri.edu\/career\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/people\/51680","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/web.uri.edu\/career\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/people"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/web.uri.edu\/career\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/people"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/web.uri.edu\/career\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/706"}],"version-history":[{"count":5,"href":"https:\/\/web.uri.edu\/career\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/people\/51680\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":52407,"href":"https:\/\/web.uri.edu\/career\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/people\/51680\/revisions\/52407"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/web.uri.edu\/career\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/51783"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/web.uri.edu\/career\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=51680"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"peoplegroups","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/web.uri.edu\/career\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/peoplegroups?post=51680"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
