Smells Like Teen Spirit: Performing Adolescent Identities, a Learning Community course with Jack Mino and Pat Sandoval that combined adolescent psychology and acting. "It was interesting to go back to my teenage years and, being 47 going back to 16, you have to dig deep."

Meeting Pathways Program Coordinator Irma Medina. "Irma has made my life so much easier."

What was your favorite thing about HCC?

Pathways. "The Pathways program is a little community within a community.".

Where are you now and what are your plans?

I'm studying psychology at Mount Holyoke College in South Hadley. After my bachelor's degree, I intend to seek by master's and eventually become a counselor for veterans, firefighters and other first responders suffering from post-traumatic stress.
