Outreach and Recruitment

Hi, I’m Ramona! I am fortunate to have been a part of the SCC Multicultural Student Services and Outreach team since 2013 in various roles, and now as the Student Recruitment Manager. I aim to help students throughout any stage of their college journey. 

Favorite place on campus: My favorite place on campus is the circle in autumn.  The leaves are colorful and vibrant.  It is the prettiest place in Spokane. 

One piece of advice for students: Never give up on yourself and your journey.  Your dreams are worth the struggle. 

What working in Outreach & Recruitment means to you: My favorite part of my job is helping prospective students realize their goals are attainable. 

Hi, I’m Guillermo! I am the son of Armando and Abigail Espinosa, two hard working Mexican immigrants who raised 6 kids in central rural Washington. I attended Gonzaga University as a first-generation college student and most recently attended Eastern Washington University for my masters while working full time. My passion in educational access, social justice, diversity, equity and inclusion come from his own personal experiences in college and passion for helping students. I have been working at Spokane Community College since 2014 in different capacities, but I am always looking to open educational opportunities for all. 

Favorite place on campus: My favorite place on campus is the third floor of building 27, you can almost see all of campus from there and they have really cool rocks on the wall to look at.

One piece of advice for students:  Continue pursuing your passions and never stop evolving and learning. Learning is messy and isn’t always linear. So, messing up is okay; we are here to support you.

What working in Outreach & Recruitment means to you:  Working in outreach and recruitment allows me inform and share the opportunities that students have had in updating their skills and education for a future career. To explore new possibilities and further their educational endeavors. I truly believe education is the bridge to financial independence and that everyone can attend a community college.

Hi, I’m Nicci! I have been working with the Community Colleges of Spokane for six years. I currently am the Campus Visit Supervisor at Spokane Community College, where I help students see themselves as students on our campus. This means talking about activities and resources that will support them on their journey to being successful students within our community.

Favorite place on campus: During the nice weather, my favorite place on campus is outside in the center of campus at one of our many tables. During the cold weather, I enjoy sitting near the windows in the caf, which also has a beautiful fireplace.

One piece of advice for students: Remember, there is support all around you at Spokane Community College and it is okay to ask for help!

What working in Outreach & Recruitment means to you: Supporting students where they are now to get them to where they want to be in the future.
