Connie is an administrative professional in higher education with over fifteen years of academic advising experience. She is a First-Generation, non-traditional student who earned a BS in Anthropology from the University of Utah. She is the graduate and undergraduate advisor, and she is passionate about helping students craft their academic plans while informing them of opportunities that align within their areas of interest. In her spare time, she enjoys traveling, gardening, reading, sewing, watching hockey, quilting, and embroidery. She loves to “nerd” out over historical embroidery techniques and research traditional and modern quilting trends.

He is pursuing a Master’s degree focusing on disability and class in the 19th century. He is passionate about improving access to education, having had the experience of navigating college as a disabled trans student. When he’s not working, you can find him engaged in personal research, perusing 19th century dictionaries and grammar books, curled up with a crossword puzzle or rockhounding in the Utah desert.
