  As a Retreat Faciliator, myself along with seven other 2021 Preview Staffers, introduce the 2022 Staff members to the culture, community, and traditions of being a University of Florida Orientation Leader. This is accomplished through workshops and attending a three day retreat where we work in small group settings to guide the new staff in this process. In this role, I assisted in welcoming over 11,000 new students and 10,000 family members to the University of Florida through facilitating orientation programming. This was fostered by creating meaningful relationships to smoothly bridge each student’s transition to college by leading a small group of students, fostering community, and connecting them to campus involvement and academic resources. I collaborated with 38 other team members to solve problems, accomplish tasks, and assist students.
