Olivia, she/her Hi! I’m Olivia, and I’m in my third year of studying Ecological Engineering. I’m passionate about environmental stewardship and conservation, and I hope to pursue both in my career after college. When I’m not coaching or studying, I’m usually reading for book club, listening to Lady Gaga, or hiking in beautiful Corvallis. I look forward to getting to know you!
Woodrós, they/them Hi! I’m Woodrós (“wood” like the tree and “rose” like the flower) and I’m thrilled to be coaching & supporting the Academic Coaching! I have lived in Indiana, Illinois, rural Pennsylvania for 5 formative years, Colorado, Georgia, Arizona, and London, but mostly in Oregon’s Willamette Valley. As a former middle school teacher and community organizer, I know I love working with and supporting folks through periods of transition. College-wise, I graduated from Lewis & Clark College with an English major and theatre minor and from Marylhurst University with a Master of Arts in Teaching degree. When I’m not coaching you might find me reading, climbing, “nerding out,” or hanging with my friends and/or cats!
Wren, they/she Hiya! My name is Wren, and I am a second year Psychology major with minors in Ethnic Studies and Women, Gender, and Sexuality Studies. I aspire to work with queer and BIPOC youth as a clinical psychologist someday, but, in the meantime, I love to create, consume media (whether that be in the form of music, books, or movies), and frolic in the outdoors! When I’m not at the ASC, you can usually find me in the Asian Pacific Cultural Center and occasionally at Ballroom Dance Club! Hope to see you soon!
