PROFILE

Current residence: San Jose, CA, US

I wanted to earn a masters degree because:

I knew that I needed to get my master's to achieve my goal of becoming an archivist.

While earning my degree, my greatest supporters were:

My husband, Mark. Your love and support have never gone unnoticed; thank you for your patience during this journey. <br /> My parents, you both had always believed in me even when I didn't believe in myself.<br /> My sisters, Victoria and Hind, you guys encouraged me through this process and always answered my calls; thanks for keeping me sane. <br /> All of my friends who would remind to take breaks and time for myself, even when I didn't want to. <br /> <br /> Thank you to everyone; I could not have done this without you guys as my support system.

While in the program, I met classmates from:

All over the U.S

What I liked best about online learning was:

The flexibility and the exposure to new technologies.

What I enjoyed most about my experience at the SJSU School of Information was:

The learning experiences that came with each class. I also enjoyed being able to apply the learning theories and concepts I learned in class to my work at my internship.

I plan to use my degree to:

Become a special collections archivist.

Now that I have completed the program, I'm most looking forward to:

Hiking with my husband and puppy, finding work in a museum or special collections, and reading for fun!
