Texas OnCourse
Fellows Coordinator
I manage a two-year fellowship program for high school counselors and advisers.
My job requires that I provide information, resources, and other support to the fellows participating in the fellowship program I manage. This means I am responding to inquiries from fellows via phone and email. I am usually planning professional development opportunities for them like in-person trainings or webinars. I explore potential avenues for the fellows to share their expertise in furthering the goals of my organization. I also create policies and guidelines to support the fellows.
"Why go to law school if you aren't going to practice law? Why put yourself through that? I heard this from a variety of people."
