Alumni Spotlight: Gisela

Congratulations to Gisela Ochoa, Class of 2014, as recipient of the Mel and Enid Zuckerman College of Public Health Staff Award for Excellence at the University of Arizona! 

Every year, the College gives these Excellence awards to recognize outstanding effort and achievement in different areas that benefit students, the College, and the community. Gisela is the Administrative Associate Office of Student Services and Alumni Affairs.

Gisela's letters state: Gisela is the first person that applicants, students, faculty and visitors meet when arriving in the Office of Student Services and she greets them in a professional and friendly manner. Particularly skilled at listening and understanding the needs of others, she has an innate ability to prioritize the importance of the concern and to quickly determine who it is that the individual needs to meet with to discuss or solve it.

Students say: "We are so grateful to Gisela for all that she did to support us in the SJS planning committee, but especially for all she does every day to help make MEZCOPH run smoothly. Her dedication to the college inspires us to do our best as students and her kind smile always brightens our day."

Congrats Gisela! We are so proud of you! Go Alumni Vipers!
