W: Through my graduate
assistantship at Trinity Lutheran
College I have been able to direct
and hone my skills in advising and
helping students. Specifically, I had
this opportunity with SEAT, the
Student Events and Activities Team,
an organization I created and
directly advise to put on the main
events at Trinity. With SEAT I
incorporated 1:1 weekly advising
sessions to help the SEAT students
feel supported and heard as they go
through any personal struggles.
C: Through the SDA program I
took classes in counseling and
leading with emotional intelligence.
Both of these classes have given me
practical and applicable skills to use
when advising students. I feel that
because of these classes I am more
confident in my abilities to
empathize and truly help students
that are in transitions.
I: Through my internship at Cornish
College of the Arts I applied and
further developed my advising skills
while working 1:1 with the student
leader for all of the student
organizations on campus.

I do some seeking in furthering my


knowledge to support students but
could do much more. More
experience, reflection, and
supportive supervision will help me
to grow as a professional. Knowing
the systems and resources provided
by an institution will allow me to be
a more resourceful and affective
professional. If an institution lacks
some vital resources or specific
resources a student needs than it is
my professional duty to seek these
out and provide students with
direction and help accessing
alternatives.
