What is your most important accomplishment at API; or, what have you done at API that you are most proud of, and why?
In my 15 years at API, I’ve been fortunate to grow not only personally, but professionally within the organization. I’ve worked in the mailroom, the transcript office, university relations, marketing, and program development. By far one of the most rewarding roles that I have held was in researching and developing new academic program partnerships abroad. Not only have I gotten to meet so many amazing people around the world, but I have been able to visit amazing places like Beijing (China), Berlin (Germany), Dublin (Ireland), Doha (Qatar), Dubrovnik (Croatia), Lisbon (Portugal), Reykjavik (Iceland), Shanghai (China), Sharjah (UAE), Thimphu (Bhutan), and many others – each leaving a lasting impression on me. I will also always treasure the customized programs I helped lead and organize in Doha, Qatar that focused on Arab media after the “Arab Spring.”
