What are your main responsibilities within your current role?
My main responsibility is the database. I oversee about 300 students each year, though it varies. My job is to be a resource for students who want to extend their education, whether that's at a university, college, or community college.
I educate them on the pathways we offer at our university and other options outside of it. I also cover the financial perspective of what that looks like overall.
My primary role is to educate students, help them get where they need to be, and ensure they understand the finances before they move on at the university.
