Hello and welcome to my portfolio. My name is Bri and I am currently a graduate student enrolled within Miami University's Student Affairs in Higher Education master's program, and I will soon be graduating in May. In 2023 I received my Bachelor's of Science in Business from Miami and studied Human Capital Management and Leadership. Following undergrad I worked full-time in the area of Student Financial Aid before beginning my graduate studies in August of 2024. This portfolio will detail and help to illustrate my graduate experience and learning from then until now, and all of the experiences I have had in between.
My approach to student affairs work revolves around intentionality, direct student support, and holistic student development. I believe that to truly support students we must seek to see them for all that they are, not just for their academic performance or their challenges, but for all that they are capable of becoming or developing into. For me, every interaction I have with a student is an opportunity to be intentional about how I show up and orchestrate the work that I do, because I deeply understand how much it matters to feel genuinely seen and supported, and the impact that can have on a students ability to succeed.
