What I love most about Occidental is the community within and around the institution. From my friends helping me through hard times to my professors caring about my academic wellbeing to my colleagues at the Career Center supporting my professional development, I feel like I am truly a part of something special. Also, the zucchini bread at the Green Bean.

What I like most about being a CPA is being able to engage with my peers one-on-one about their career goals. It is so interesting to learn about the trajectory of each student’s career journey and I feel honored to be a small part of their development. Meeting with students also inspires me to work and grow in my position and be a better asset to my peers.  I also really like meeting student that I wouldn’t usually cross paths with due to academic or social schedules! It is always nice to see another friendly face on campus.
