About this speaker
Hey everyone! My name is Elaina Curtis and I am super excited to be joining STEP as a Success Coach this upcoming fall! I graduated from Worcester State University in August 2020 with my Bachelor's degree in psychology with communication sciences and disorders minor, as well as a concentration in women's gender studies. This past year I have been working as a lead after-school teacher for 7-9-year-olds. I’m thrilled to be continuing my education at Salem State to earn my Master's degree in Higher Education and Student Affairs. I am extremely passionate about college access and transition, especially since I had a tough time with my own undergraduate transition. Eventually, I was able to find my niche through working on campus as a writing center consultant, working at the information desk, and being a part of the student events committee! When I’m not in class, studying, or working, I love spending time with my friends and family, petting my adorable cat Callie, and traveling the world! I’ve been to China, the Bahamas, and all over Europe! My photo was actually taken at the John Lennon wall in Prague. I can’t wait to meet all of you!
