I love my job as I see the impact that I can make in supporting student success on a daily basis, which is very rewarding. Every student is unique for me, and it is exciting to follow how each student evolves in their careers and in achieving their goals. Because Arden Berlin is still a small campus, there is a strong feeling of family and togetherness here.
