New Beginning

I have completed 15 years in my current career, although, the last 15 months do not really feel as though they count towards my career time.  The role I filled was so very different from my local youth development role.  I simply felt like a fish out of water!  So, you might say I am jumping into a new pool of sorts!

On Monday, I begin my new career journey.  While I am still working for the same university, my hat will change.  I will be assisting students with enrollment, graduation requirements, advising details and academic related circumstances.  I will be part of a team serving 2,000 students for the college!  Our new Dean began on July 1, and the position that I will fill is a new position for the college.  I look forward to these growth opportunities.

I am sad -- yet excited too.  I will develop new relationships, but know that I will miss my network of co-workers (friends) tremendously.  I hope to someday join these ranks again.  In the meantime, I plan to participate as a volunteer for this awesome youth organization.  I look forward to reconnecting with staff, participants and volunteers throughout the year.  In the meantime, I hope that this new "pool" will yield calm waters, lasting friendships and amazing learning opportunities!
