Staff Spotlight: Vanessa Calzada
Vanessa is our lead guide on campus. She leads with quiet confidence and is deeply connected to the success and happiness of our learners. Vanessa is a master at using academic strategies to help learners succeed in their coursework and learning goals. Vanessa will be co-designing passion projects with learners this semester and leading them through the process. We are so grateful to have Vanessa’s calm presence in the learning studio every day.
Vanessa’s Manifesto of Learning:
“Believe in yourself. Embrace imperfections and unknowns. Know that possibilities are endless. Know that that there is no such thing as failure, failure is not an option, because failing means learning from mistakes. Know that getting lost will only help you find yourself. ENCOURAGE. INSPIRE. TEACH. Do what you love.”
