  Farewell, Gary

  Jul 23, 202640 min

  I work with a lot of alumni in my position, and one of the phrases I hear most often is, "Is Gary still with the department?" I'm not looking forward to answering, "no," going forward... We are all happy that Gary is finally taking a much needed break after 26+ years leading up our talented advising team. Even if we will miss his presence in the building. We got together over Zoom one more time for an unedited, unfiltered, and awkward audio laden chat. Enjoy these ten questions with Gary.

  Psychology Leaders with Jimena Saldana

  May 8, 202623 min

  Jimena was kind enough pause her studies during finals week to chat. She is the sitting President of our Psychology Leaders group in the final year of her undergraduate degree. We reviewed a productive and fun year of activities, presentations, workshops, and stress relievers...while also taking time to anticipate the upcoming summer break!

  AI is THE hot topic in all walks of life these days. So, I found an alum who "empowers people to confidently champion AI technology." Erica is a self starting entrepreneur who founded "Nerdette Ventures," a beacon of light for women who are underrepresented in tech. Now she has 3 apps in development, strong opinions on chocolate chips, and nothing but love for Illini hoops. Keep an eye out for "Warrior Walkup" in the app store to maximize your child's plate appearance.

  Psych Bites

  Oct 3, 202525 min

  This season, the plan is to expand the content of the podcast and feature more students, organizations, faculty, and staff. I figured the perfect start would be to focus on UIUC's Undergraduate Psychology Journal, "Psych Bites." We spoke with Jess Chen and Hannah Lamb about the creation, evolution, and focus of this exciting new project. Listen to how you can consume and/or get involved! *Spoiler Alert* Following on Instagram is the best first step. :) https://www.instagram.com/psychbites.uiuc/

  Brittany Rogers

  Sitting down with Brittany reminded me that a job doesn't have to be work. She is an accomplished keynote speaker, panelist, and frequent podcast guest. She could've steered the ship on her own. I loved hearing about how she sculpted her path out of the gate. Collaborating with our amazing advising staff, Brittany knew exactly what she wanted to do and checked all the boxes to get them done. Using that same determination, she started her own LLC that offers the services that feature her greatest strengths. All while self-publishing her book on the side, " The Things I Wish I Knew: A Millennial's Guide To Learning The Mental And Emotional Concepts The School System And Our Parents Didn’t Teach Us." https://www.amazon.com/Things-Wish-Knew-Millennials-Emotional/dp/B0997SN3CW Brittany warned me at the beginning that she loves to talk. I had the pleasure of being invited to listen.
