Assistant Director And Lecturer
Ithaca, New York, Us
As the Assistant Director, I was an instructor of record on one of the most popular courses on Cornell's Campus -- Intergroup Dialogue, a peer-facilitated social justice education program. I coached these undergraduate peer facilitators and was a co-facilitator for their train-the-trainer practicum. Additionally, I supervised and mentored a team of over 15 undergraduate and graduate facilitators, ensuring their growth and development in our campus workshop program. Working with these facilitators, I orchestrated over 40 workshops annually on diversity, intercultural communication, and conflict management. I also cultivated relationships with partners across campus to address the inclusion, diversity, and social justice educational needs of students, faculty, and staff stakeholders. Using design thinking, I improved workshop processes for facilitators, program staff, and clients.
