Hello my wonderful Huskies — It’s Mel here, aka AAC Hartford’s Program Coordinator! Many of you may or may not know, but I am the face behind our wonderful Instagram page you all have been following over the last 4 years. Today was my last day in my pro-staff role at AAC Hartford and UConn Hartford. As I transition out of this role into my next chapter, it’s hard to put into words what this chapter has meant to me.
Over the past four years, this campus became home. My role as Program Coordinator has been one of the most meaningful experiences in my life. I’ve grown personally and professionally, gained confidence, and discovered a deeper sense of purpose. UConn Hartford shaped me into the person I am today, and I’m so grateful for every part of the journey.
To my supervisor and AAC Hartford’s Assistant Director of Academic Support, Ada: thank you for believing in me, for pouring into me, and for being the kind of mentor who changes lives. Your impact on me runs deep, and I’ll carry your wisdom with me always.
To my AAC pro-staff family, FYP, Learning Communities, and IZ teams, thank you for your support, your encouragement, and for being such steady, kindhearted people. Working alongside you has been a gift.
And to my AAC Hartford student leaders... you all were the heart of everything I loved about this job. Thank you for trusting me. For making the office a space filled with laughter, growth, and community. For letting me witness your leadership, your growth, your wins and your resilience. I’ve learned just as much from you as I ever hoped to offer. I’m endlessly proud of each of you and always will be. My love for you all runs so deep.
To every UConn Hartford student, thank you for letting me be a small part of your journey. You’ve inspired me more than you know. Your strength, your heart, and your drive have left a lasting mark on me. No matter where life takes you, I hope you hold onto the truth that you are not alone, and you are deeply valued. I’m rooting for you all always. Keep going, keep growing, and never forget how much you matter.
With deep love & gratitude,
Mel B. officially signing out! 💚
