A Conversation With Shyvonne
How do you like to stay active?
Rock Climbing, Whitewater Kayaking, Mountain Biking, Hiking with my cat
What do you like most about your career in Campus Rec?
What I enjoy the most with my career in campus recreation is having the opportunity to take something that I am passionate about, and share it with others, especially those who may have never been introduced to outdoor recreation before. I’m a huge advocate that the outdoors is for everyone!
How do you help students at A&M-Commerce?
On the surface, I help facilitate cool activities and learn some fun hard skills. Below the surface of these activities, I am actually equipping students with crucial soft skills, such as communication, organization, and social/ emotional intelligence.
What else would you like to share about yourself or your A&M-Commerce experience?
My passion is sharing outdoor recreation and inspiring others with the same passion! I’ve worked as a Rock Climbing guide in Oregon, West Virginia, North Carolina, and South Carolina.
